The Carolina Hurricanes and Florida Panthers are playing to see who plays in the Stanley Cup finals.

The winner gets to play for the championship of the playoffs.

Carolina and Florida are very similar in the way they play hockey.

The Canes score a lot of goals. So do the Panthers.

The Canes score have scored more goals than the Panthers in the playoffs.

Sebastian “Fishy” Aho and Jesper “Quckie” Fast have scored the most for the Canes. They have 5 goals each.

Almost all of the Florida Panthers have played in the playoffs before this year but more of the Carolina Hurricanes have. For example, Brent Burns has played in 105 playoff games.

One of the big differences between the Panthers and the Hurricanes are their goalies.

Florida’s best goalie Sergei “Officer Bob” Bobrovsky was good when the Panthers played the Boston Bruins.

But Officer Bob gives up a lot of goals

He gave up 2 goals in every game against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

The Panthers have goalie Alex “Lyon King” Lyon. He was not good against the Boston Bruins. He gave up a lot of goals and did not play many games.

He did give up a lot of goals and did not play many games.

The Hurricanes have a goalie named Antti “Father Finn” Raanta. He was very good when the Canes played the New York Islanders.

The Canes also have a goalie named Fredrik “Freddie” Andersen He was very good against the New Jersey Devils.

Because the Hurricanes and Panthers are both so good at scoring, KIDS CANES thinks the Hurricanes will win because they have better goalies.

Kids Canes Challenge: See if you can find out where both Antti “Father Finn” Raanta and Sebastian “Fishy” Aho are from.
