Recap: The Golden Knights were facing elimination and needed a victory in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final to stay alive. Carolina struck first a few minutes into the game. The Golden Knights killed off two first penalties to hold the Hurricanes lead at 1-0. Vegas began the middle frame on the power play but failed to find the back of the net. Late in the period Carolina scored to take a 2-0 in the intermission. The Golden Knights struggled to create shots but had a great power play chance but Jack Eichel hit the crossbar. With a minute remaining in Game 6 the Hurricanes added an empty net goal. The Hurricanes defeat the Golden Knights 3-0 and capture their second Stanley Cup trophy in team history. (Recap by Jason) Analysis: It just wasn’t to be on this night. Carolina came out hot and Brandon Bussi along with a whirlwind of puck luck kept the Golden Knights out all night. It’s hard to believe after what we all witness for the last 2 months, but the Hurricanes were simply a better team. Tough end to a remarkable playoff run. (Recap by Ken) Upcoming stories from Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Vegas Golden Knights vs Carolina Hurricanes at T-Mobile Arena. Where do we go from here? Ken’s Three VGK Stars *** Mitch Marner ** Mark Stone * Brett Howden Well… shit. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 15, 2026 This has been a series of 2-goal leads disappearing. VGK must do it again to keep their dreams alive. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 15, 2026 Logan Stankoven and Jackson Blake with a monster forechecking shift. Dogs on a bone and eventually the dam broke. VGK down a pair in an elimination game.

Recap: The Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes faced up for a crucial Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final in Raleigh. In the opening seven minute of the game Pavel Dorofeyev gave Vegas a 1-0 edge on the power play. A handful of shifts later the Hurricanes answered right back. After twenty minutes Game 5 was locked in a 1-1 tie. Carolina snapped the tie deep into the second frame to take their first lead of the game. Late in the period the Hurricanes scored to take a 3-1 lead into the second intermission. Trailing 3-1, the Golden Knights committed a costly penalty which the Hurricanes took advantage. Dorofeyev scored his second of the game to make it a 4-2 Carolina advantage. Vegas emptied their net with a late game power play but couldn’t find the back of the net. The Hurricanes take a 3-2 Stanley Cup Final lead by defeating the Golden Knights 4-2 in Raleigh. Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final is scheduled for Sunday at 5PM PT at T-Mobile Arena. (Recap by Jason) Analysis: The Golden Knights finally figured out how to start a game better against a Hurricanes team that’s extremely hard to keep from running over you in the 1st period. The problem is that the dominance in the 2nd period vanished and it was mostly because of untimely penalties. Lauzon took a bad one, then after VGK killed that one, McNabb took another and the Canes capitalized. It’s hard to keep games from snowballing in Raleigh and that’s exactly what happened. Carolina potted another in the 2nd and then another penalty gave them 4-minutes to essentially seal the game. VGK are in a dangerous hole, and will now have to win twice in a row against a team that hasn’t lost two straight since January. This team never says die though, there’s no way they are rolling over on Sunday easily.

Recap: The Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes paired up for a crucial Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final in Las Vegas. Carolina quickly took a 2-0 advantage immediately in the opening frame. Captain Mark Stone cut the Hurricanes lead in half with his seventh goal of the postseason. Carolina regained their two-goal edge five minutes later. The Golden Knights thought they had scored again but the puck didn’t cross the goal line before the period expired. In the opening five minutes of the middle frame William Karlsson scored to make it a 3-2 Carolina lead. Brett Howden tied the game late into the period with his 14th ok goal of the postseason. Carolina snapped the tie 6:32 into the final period. Vegas had several quality chances but couldn’t find the game tying goal. Eventually, the Hurricanes added an empty net score to end the game 5-3. The Hurricanes tie the Stanley Cup Final 2-2 by defeating the Golden Knights 5-3 in Las Vegas. Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final is scheduled for Thursday at 5PM PT in Raleigh. (Recap by Jason) Analysis: It’s been a story through the first four games of this series. The Canes start fast, VGK respond in the middle frame, and then Carolina gets the better of it in the 3rd. Fortunately, for Vegas they’ve been able take advantage of the middle frame dominance enough to walk away with a pair of wins (playing well in 2 OT helped). The balance of play has continued to go about the same where Carolina has a little better of the play more often than the Golden Knights, but VGK have been better at finishing their chances. On this night, it wasn’t enough as a few breaks went the way of Carolina including a VGK goal that was 0.1 seconds late in the 1st. Golden Knights are still in a perfectly fine position, start with cleaning up the starts. (Recap by Ken) Upcoming stories from Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Vegas Golden Knights vs Carolina Hurricanes at T-Mobile Arena. VGK’s finishing has been unreal Ken’s Three VGK Stars *** Mitch Marner ** Brett Howden * William Karlsson Honestly, it was Carolina's night. The shot right after the buzzer in the 2nd. The near misses. Then a ridiculous empty netter. We're headed back to Raleigh tied. VGK have some things to clean up. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 10, 2026 My goodness. Hart came up with a couple massive stops and then Jordan Staal, who is the only play in the world as hot as Brett Howden, somehow pokes it in as he's falling to the ice. VGK have another deficit to erase. 4-3 — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 10, 2026 VGK now have 9 goals on 40 shots (22.5%) in 2nd periods in the Stanley Cup Final. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 10, 2026 Eichel has had a slow game but he's picking up here in the 2nd. Nice chance then he got loose in the NZ and Martinook had to grab him to avoid a break. VGK back to the PP. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 10, 2026 Still loving how easy it appears for VGK to get chances off the rush. CAR feel like they have to work so hard for everything and VGK just need one time to pop a rush and good things happen. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 10, 2026 The post GAME 4 – CAROLINA HURRICANES 5 VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS 3 (Series Tied 2-2) appeared first on SinBin.vegas.

Recap: The Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes matched up for crucial Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final in Las Vegas. Both teams traded shots in the opening frame but neither had many quality chances. After 20 minutes the game was locked in a scoreless tie. Vegas believed it had taken a 1-0 lead off a Mark Stone break, but the goal was called back for offside. Minutes later, the Golden Knights had another goal waived off for goaltender interference. The puck luck began to bounce for Vegas. First, Tomas Hertl capitalized on the power play after Carolina was caught with too many men on the ice. 14 seconds later Mitch Marner was credited with a goal that went off of a Hurricanes stick. Marner stretched Vegas’ lead to 3-0 several shifts later. He completed the natural hat trick with a third goal in the period. Marner’s three consecutive goals were the fastest hat trick in the Stanley Cup Final’s history. Leading 4-0, the Golden Knights protected their advantage in the final frame. Marner was awarded a penalty shot but failed to score his fourth goal of Game 3. Carolina added four unanswered goals to make it an improbable 4-4 tie. Overtime was tight and each team limited chances. Which led to a second OT of Game 3. In second OT, Shea Theodore fired a puck wide off the back wall, it got deflected towards the goal and went into the net. The Golden Knights take a 2-1 lead in the Final by defeating the Hurricanes 5-4 in double OT. Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final is scheduled for Tuesday at 5 PM in Las Vegas. (Recap by Jason) Analysis: Similar to Games 1 and 2, the Hurricanes came out hot to start the 1st period and VGK looked like they were trying to hang on. But, the moment the 2nd period has begun in this series, the Golden Knights have absolutely dominated. They scored goal after goal after goal and even when challenges would take them off, it didn’t matter. Marner recorded the fastest hat trick in Stanley Cup Final history and became the first player with four points in Cup Final period since 1919. Unfortunaely, the 3rd period hasn’t been VGK’s friend, and they gave away one of the biggest leads in franchise history. However, this team does not know how to go away. They kept plugging and got an unbelievable bounce in double OT to win an absolute epic.  (Recap by Ken) Upcoming stories from Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Vegas Golden Knights vs Carolina Hurricanes at T-Mobile Arena. An absolute epic Ken’s Three VGK Stars *** Brayden McNabb ** Shea Theodore * Mitch Marner The Golden Knights have won the best game in the history of the National Hockey League! — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 7, 2026 Humans aren't designed to watch this. Too stressful. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 7, 2026 I don't know why. I don't know how. This game is going to OT. Next goal wins another insane game in this Stanley Cup Final. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 7, 2026 The Golden Knights have scored 12 goals on 65 shots on goal in this series. They were shooting an incredible 13.4% prior to this series. They're at 18.5% through the 2nd period of Game 2. — SinBin.vegas (@SinBinVegas) June 7, 2026 Howden may have moved into 1st place in the Conn Smythe race during Games 1 and 2… he's a distant 2nd now.

Recap: The Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes paired up for Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final in Raleigh. Brett Howden opened the scoring on Vegas’ second shot of the contest. Howden snapped his playoff-leading 12th goal to give Vegas the first lead of Game 2. Howden scored his second goal, and 13th of the postseason, 7:23 into the middle frame to take the crowd completely out of the game. Vegas forced Carolina into poor shots and held them scoreless through 40 minutes. The Golden Knights took a 2-0 lead into the second intermission. Vegas fought off several chances from Carolina, but the home team couldn’t get past VGK’s defense. On their fifth shot of the period, the Hurricanes cut the Golden Knights in half. A few shifts later Carolina tied the game at 2-2. The Hurricanes took a brief 3-2 lead, but captain Mark Stone tied the game late to force overtime. Under four minutes into OT Carolina scored the game-winning goal. The Hurricanes tie the series by defeating the Golden Knights 4-3 in OT. Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final is scheduled for Saturday at 5 PM PT in Las Vegas. (Recap by Jason) Analysis: An absolute masterpiece defensively had the Golden Knights staring at a runaway victory. For 50 minutes it looked like the Canes had no idea how to generate offense. Then, a forecheck play turned it around and VGK sort of went into a shell trying to keep the one-goal lead. That didn’t work, then a dubious challenge gave the Canes another PP chance and they capitalized. This Golden Knights team have that cockroach in them though; they just will not die. Well, at least not that easily. In OT, Carolina continued their pressure and snatched it.

(The answer was there in this game for them) Ken’s Three VGK Stars *** Mitch Marner ** Mark Stone * Brett Howden Simple passing play and for the first time in his NHL career, Carter Hart has allowed an OT goal.

Recap: The Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes faced off in Raleigh, NC for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final. Carolina took an immediate 1-0 lead in the opening minute of Game 1. The Hurricanes doubled their lead past the midway point of the 1st period. 80 seconds later, Vegas defenseman Shea Theodore cut into Carolina’s lead with a deflected point shot to make it 2-1. Ivan Barbahsev tied the game quickly into the middle frame. Minutes later, William Karlsson gave Vegas their first lead of Game 1. Carolina scored later in the period to tie the game 3-3. Vegas’ Brett Howden continued his strong postseason with the go-ahead goal 1:21 into the final period. Carolina wouldn’t go away and tied the with under ten minutes to play. Tomas Hertl broke the 4-4 tie with a clutch late-game-winning goal. The Golden Knights take a 1-0 lead in the Final by defeating the Hurricanes 5-4 in Raleigh. Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final is scheduled for Thursday at 5PM PT in North Carolina. (Recap by Jason) Analysis: Carolina dominated the early part of the 1st period, then VGK dominated the early part of the 2nd period. Each time found a way to control the game in their own way for decently long stretches and both were opportunistic with their chances. VGK continued to find ways to generate chances in the 3rd period and a couple of magnificent passes from Shea Theodore and Colton Sissons set up Brett Howden and Tomas Hertl for go-ahead goals. The 6-on-5 defense was outstanding once again and VGK have swept Game 1’s in the 2026 playoffs.
