Hurricanes Take 3-0 Series Lead Into Game 4 Against the Senators
- On Thursday, the Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Ottawa Senators 2-1, securing a commanding 3-0 lead in their first-round playoff series. Goaltender Frederik Anderson stopped 21 shots to anchor the victory.
- Logan Stankoven opened the scoring early in the first period, and Jackson Blake netted the game-winner in the second period. Drake Batherson scored the lone goal for Ottawa after a turnover.
- Power-Play struggles plagued the Senators, who failed to capitalize on multiple opportunities early in the second period. Defensive concerns mounted when defenceman Jake Sanderson departed the game with an injury after blocking a shot.
- Facing a 3-0 series deficit, the Senators seek to avoid repeating last year's opening round, when they trailed the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-0 before eventually falling in six games.
- The Hurricanes can sweep the best-of-seven series Saturday afternoon at Canadian Tire Centre. Only four NHL teams have historically battled back to win a series after losing the first three games.
