Hurricanes Shut Out Senators in Game One

0:00On April 18, Carolina Hurricanes shut out the Ottawa Senators to nothing in game 1 of their Eastern Conference, first round series at Lenovo. Center. Frederick Anderson was lights out with 22 saves for his sixth career playoff shut out, giving the top East seed a strong start. Logan Stankuven and Taylor Hall each scored once and added an assist, while Jackson Blake dished two helpers to fuel the attack. Linus Olmarch stood tall for Ottawa with 27 saves, but it wasn't enough against Carolina's pressure. The Senators got hearts racing when Drake Beatherson seemed to tie it late in the third, but video review ruled the putt never crossed the line after. Anderson snagged it. Ottawa defenseman Artem Zov also left early in the second and didn't come back, thinning their blue line. That overturned goal kept the shut out intact, and Hall sealed it soon after in a net front scramble. Hurricanes now hold a 1-0 series lead heading into game 2. Game 2 goes down Monday at 7.30pm Eastern, still at Lenovo Center.
