Vegas completed a sweep of the Colorado Avalanche in the Western Conference Final, creating the biggest surprise of the postseason. Attention shifts to the Eastern Conference Final, where the Carolina Hurricanes aim to extend their series lead to 3-1 against the Montreal Canadiens. Carolina began the postseason by winning eight straight games, then lost Game 1 to Montreal. After that setback, Carolina won two straight and has looked like the team expected to advance from the East. A sweep in Montreal would further demoralize Montreal if Carolina can complete it.
"The Western Conference Final is done, with Vegas sweeping the Colorado Avalanche in the biggest surprise of the postseason. Attention turns east, as the Carolina Hurricanes look to make it a 3-1 series lead on Montreal. The Canes won eight in a row to start the postseason before dropping Game 1 to Montreal. Now they've won two straight and look like the team expected to make it out of the East."
"Sweeping both in Montreal should demoralize the Habs enough, if they can pull it off."
