🏒 Game of the Day: Carolina Hurricanes vs. Vegas Golden Knights (Game 3)
8:00 PM ET | ABC (US) · Sportsnet / CBC / TVA Sports (Canada) · T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas
Game 2 was the kind of night that changes a series. Trailing 2-0 heading into the third period and facing a potential 0-2 hole, Carolina scored three times in 5:05 to lead 3-2 – only for Mark Stone to force overtime with 1:21 remaining on a six-on-five. Seth Jarvis then ended it in the extra period, taking a Shayne Gostisbehere feed above the left circle and one-timing a power-play goal past Carter Hart for a 4-3 win.
Five goals in the third period, then an overtime winner. For Jarvis, it broke a lengthy scoring drought; for the Hurricanes, it preserved a season that looked to be slipping away. Gostisbehere has now been directly involved in decisive moments in both games of this series.
Vegas will not be too troubled by the split. The Golden Knights came into Raleigh needing to take one of two and did exactly that, and they now return to a building where they have been excellent all postseason. The counterpoint is that they let a two-goal third-period lead evaporate in barely five minutes – and that Stone’s late heroics only produced a point’s worth of consolation in a game they controlled for 40 minutes.
The goaltending remains the story worth watching. Neither Hart nor Frederik Andersen has looked like the goaltender who carried his team through three rounds – the two combined for just 41 saves in Game 1 and neither was flawless in Game 2. Whoever settles first probably wins this series.
Prediction: Vegas responds at home in front of a loud crowd – Golden Knights take Game 3 and the series lead.
Remaining Stanley Cup Final Schedule
Game 4 stays in Las Vegas on Tuesday, June 9. If required, Game 5 returns to Raleigh on Thursday, June 11, Game 6 goes back to T-Mobile Arena on Sunday, June 14, and Game 7 would be played in Carolina on Wednesday, June 17.
Every game starts at 8:00 PM ET and airs on ABC in the United States, with Sportsnet, CBC and French-language TVA Sports in Canada.
Two games, two one-goal finishes, and both decided in the final minutes. This series has already earned its billing – and now it is a best-of-five with Vegas holding home ice for three of them.
