Slafkovsky cut it to 5-4 at 16:57, but Andrei Svechnikov<\/a>\u00a0scored into an empty net with 1:15 remaining for the 6-4 final.<\/p>\n \u201cI really liked the first two periods,\u201d Carolina coach Rod Brind\u2019Amour said. \u201cI thought we were really good, didn\u2019t give up much, killed a couple of 5-on-3s. Like we\u2019re doing the hard work there and I really thought we were in control of the game for the most part. The third period was probably the one I didn\u2019t like the most. We kind of turned pucks over. We were just not super sharp, but we had enough of a lead that we were able to get her done.\u201d<\/p>\n Montreal was outshot 12-6 in the first, but scored on three of its shots to take two of the three one-goal leads generated during a five-goal opening period.<\/p>\n Hall put the Hurricanes up 1-0 at 2:25 of the first when he got to his feet in the goalmouth behind Dobes and redirected a spin-around wrist shot by Jackson Blake<\/a>.<\/p>\n Bolduc tied it 1-1 at 3:23 with a backhand over Bussi\u2019s left pad, retrieving a rebound of Phillip Danault<\/a>\u2019s deflection of a wrist shot by Texier from the top of the slot.<\/p>\n Suzuki gave the Canadiens a 2-1 lead at 4:27.
