What happened: The Carolina Hurricanes are within minutes of clinching the Stanley Cup, with the closing moments of Game 6 airing on ABC and the ESPN App. A Carolina win would end the series and deliver the franchise its championship.
Why it matters: A title would cap a postseason run that saw Carolina reach the Stanley Cup Final and reward a fan base that has waited years for another banner. Closing out at this stage avoids the pressure of a deciding Game 7 and lets the Hurricanes lift the Cup on the brink of their own building's celebration.
What to watch: Watch whether Carolina protects the lead through the final horn to secure the title, or whether the result forces a winner-take-all Game 7.
