New York Rangers vs. Carolina Hurricanes | NHL Playoffs Round 2

The New York Rangers (4-0) and the Carolina Hurricanes (4-1) are set to face off in Round 2 of the NHL Playoffs. This matchup pits the top-seeded Rangers, fresh off a commanding sweep of the Washington Capitals, against the Hurricanes, who defeated the New York Islanders in five games.

While the Rangers hold a 2-1 advantage over the Hurricanes in their regular-season encounters, each game has been fiercely contested.

Led by standout performances from Mika Zibanejad and Vincent Trocheck, the Rangers showcased their offensive prowess in the first round of the playoffs, supported by Artemi Panarin and Chris Kreider. Goalkeeper Igor Shesterkin averaged a 1.75 goals-against average and .931 save percentage, further bolstering the Rangers’ defense.

The Hurricanes enter the series riding the momentum of a strong first-round performance. Seth Jarvis led the charge with seven points, ably supported by Andrei Svechnikov, Brady Skjei, and Martin Necas, with Frederik Andersen’s steady presence in goal.

The Rangers’ hard-fought victory in 2022 and the Hurricanes’ emphatic sweep in 2020 underscore the intensity of their postseason rivalry. This playoff showdown promises edge-of-your-seat action from start to finish.
