Although the Panthers must be worried by their inability to score in Game 4, and they will look to rectify that in Game 5 as they push for a second consecutive trip to the finals. The availability of Sam Reinhart, A.J. Greer and Niko Mikkola remains uncertain, as all three are currently sidelined with injuries.

The Hurricanes and their fans must be wondering where this performance has been throughout the first three games, as a clean sheet and three goals are a rare occurrence against the Stanley Cup holders. The Hurricanes have Sean Walker and Jalen Chatfield sidelined for the rest of the round, while Jesper Fast is sidelined for the rest of the season.
