The Carolina Hurricanes take on the Bruins in game four tonight

The Carolina Hurricanes look to force a game six against Boston with a win tonight to tie up the series at two wins apiece.

Game four. This game can make or break these Carolina Hurricanes. The last three games have been heartbreaking. Game one ended in complete heartbreaking fashion a few seconds into the second overtime. Game two ended with a hard-fought win and kept us in this series long enough to force a game five. Game three was a devastating loss both on the scoreboard and on the ice.

This is where the Carolina Hurricanes need to turn things around. It was where the Hurricanes turned it around against the Washington Capitals last year forcing a game six that allowed them to force a game seven and a double-overtime series win. Against Boston, they will need to ensure that they fight back even harder tonight.

This will not be an easy fight. They have still not figured out an answer to Jaroslav Halak, who shut them out during the regular season and if it wasn’t for a mistake made from behind the net, would have shut out them out against on Saturday.

They have had the whole weekend to figure out their game and plan for a comeback in this series. It will take at least six games to clean this one out. Tonight they can force this series into a best-of-three and keep fighting, not only for their fans but for their teammates as well.

Here are the Keys to an important win tonight.
