💨 Abstract

The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Washington Capitals 3-1 in Game 5, advancing to the Eastern Conference final with a series win. Andrei Svechnikov scored the go-ahead goal with under two minutes left, and Seth Jarvis sealed the victory with an empty-net goal. The Hurricanes, known for their strong closing performances, will face either the Florida Panthers or Toronto Maple Leafs next. The Capitals, who finished atop their conference, saw their season end despite a strong start.
