The Hurricanes, who took down the Lightning in the opening round, are a formidable opponent, setting the stage for a thrilling matchup with New York.
Both teams have star-studded cores.

As for the Hurricanes, a mix of youngsters and long-time veterans leads the way, which should make for an interesting yet potentially anti-climatic series with must-see TV implications.
