The New York Rangers defeated the Carolina Hurricanes 3-1 in game three of their Eastern Conference Semifinal matchup this afternoon. The game was the first played at Madison Square Garden in the series, which is now 2-1 in favour of the Hurricanes.
After losing all three games to the Boston Bruins at TD Garden last series, Carolina is now 0-4 on the road in the Stanley Cup playoffs. However, they are 6-0 at home at PNC Arena in Raleigh, something they'll have to figure out if they want to go far in the postseason.
