Stanley Cup Final: Hurricanes vs. Golden Knights Prediction, Winner, Over/Under for Game 6

Since making the switch to Brandon Bussi as the starting goaltender in Game 4, the Hurricanes have completely turned the tide of the Stanley Cup Final. Carolina has outscored Vegas 9-5 in those two games, and the Hurricanes now hold a 3-2 series lead as a result.

Bussi relieved G Frederik Andersen in Game 3 and stopped 18 of the 19 shots that he faced before the Hurricanes fell 5-4 in double overtime. During the Stanley Cup Final, Bussi has tallied a 2.18 goals-against-average and a .959 save percentage when facing unblocked shots, according to MoneyPuck.

Despite falling behind 1-0 in the opening period of Game 5, the Hurricanes netted 4 unanswered goals to take control of the contest. LW Andrei Svechnikov turned in a 2-goal performance, both of which came on the power play.

According to ESPN Insights, Carolina is just the second team in NHL history to score 4-plus goals in its first five Stanley Cup Final games, joining the 1973 Montreal Canadiens.

Now the Hurricanes will attempt to clinch the Stanley Cup on the Golden Knights’ home ice. It would mark the second Stanley Cup in franchise history after winning it in 2006 when head coach Rod Brind’Amour was the captain of that team.
