## Resource

The Montreal Canadiens came out flying in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Final, stunning the Carolina Hurricanes with a statement road win. Jason Gregor and Mike Rupp break down how the Habs exploited Carolina’s aggressive style, why Cole Caufield and Ivan Demidov finding their offense changes everything, and whether the Hurricanes should actually be worried after one game. Plus, the guys dive into the Western Conference Final after Vegas took Game 1 over Colorado. How much of an impact is Cale Makar’s injury concern having on the Avalanche? Should Colorado already be considering a goalie change? And are the Golden Knights getting underrated contributions from Pavel Dorofeyev and Brett Howden? Also discussed: Freddie Andersen & Colorado’s goalie situation Why Montreal’s confidence is growing fast Vegas capitalizing on Colorado’s mistakes The Memorial Cup and changing CHL/NCAA landscape Macklin Celebrini’s next contract projection Offseason goalie carousel rumors 👍🏼 Powered by @bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.
