Canada needed a hero for their first World Cup point.
They turned to an oft-forgotten veteran, who delivered.

Rod Brind’Amour said he doesn’t anticipate lineup changes,
As it should be. The net is Brandon Bussi’s now.

The Hurricanes continue to improve in this championship series, while the Golden Knights look stuck in neutral.
Thursday night felt like a turning point, the moment the Hurricanes finally got to the essence of their game, writes @PierreVLeBrun and @reporterchris.

Carolina is one win away. Andrei Svechnikov, Brandon Bussi and a strong second period helped get them there.
What else happened?

NEW for @TheAthletic, the Carolina Hurricanes are two wins away from proving they made the right call in not upgrading in goal at the trade deadline.
But they’re testing the limits of that decision in this Stanley Cup Final. My column, free to read ⤵️

There’s no timeline on how quickly this can be carried out. The Oilers are aware of this. Players involved, etc in 2023 will have to be interviewed. If Babcock were to back out at this stage, a league source says there would be no reason to investigate.

The NHL is moving ahead with its investigation on Mike Babcock and events in Columbus as per NHLPA request.
