The Eastern Conference finals have proven to be a challenging battleground for the Carolina Hurricanes, who faced an impressive Florida Panthers team that has dominated the series. The Panthers, seeking to defend their 2024 Stanley Cup title, have outscored the Canes 16-4 in the first three games, putting Carolina in a precarious position as they look to turn the tide in Game 4.

Carolina's struggle has been compounded by a disheartening history, having lost 15 consecutive conference final-round games, a record that dates back to 2006. The Canes need to channel their inner resilience to make a comeback, as only four teams have overcome a 3-0 series deficit in NHL playoff history. With the Panthers significantly favored at -5000 odds to win, the odds seem stacked against Carolina, yet they remain determined to fight for their chance at the Cup.
