Carolina Hurricanes: Morning After Antti Raanta takes game 1 from the Islanders

Sebastian Aho and Stefan Noesen each scored on the power play and Antti Raanta stopped 24 shots as the Carolina Hurricanes took game 1 of their Eastern Conference Quarterfinal Series from the New York Islanders, 2-1.  The Canes scored on each of their first two tries with the man advantage and Raanta won his 3rd consecutive series-opening game for Carolina.  Carolina's penalty kill was also stellar, shutting the Isles out on 4 opportunities.  New York registered 3 shots on goal during their first attempt, but just 1 on their other three combined.  Brent Burns and Martin Necas each had 2 assists on the night.  Game 2 is Wednesday night at PNC Arena.
