RALEIGH -- As the Carolina Hurricanes try to eliminate the New York Rangers on Saturday night in Game 6 at Madison Square Garden, they're downplaying the Stanley Cup playoff trend that makes a Game 7 back in Raleigh feel practically inevitable at this point.
"It's kind of beating a dead horse about us not winning on the road," center Vincent Trocheck said.
The Hurricanes' Game 5 victory Thursday night improved them to 7-0 in Raleigh this postseason. They have a goal differential of plus-17 and a goals-against average of 1.
