It was the first postseason shutout for Florida goalie Sergei Bobrovsky in his NHL career. It took him 64 playoff games to get that accomplishment.
After a scoreless first frame, Florida scooted out to a 1-0 lead on the power play at the 10:05 mark of the first period. Sam Bennett sent the puck from the end wall to Matthew Tkachuk on the right wing. He centered it and Sam Reinhart snapped a shot from the inner right circle past Frederik Andersen for his seventh goal of the postseason.
Carolina pulled their goalie for an extra attacker with 3:22 remaining in the third period. Marc Staal flipped a shot from his own zone into the empty net with 2:06 to go for a 2-0 lead, but it was not allowed.
