Twenty years after their last championship, the Carolina Hurricanes have returned to the Stanley Cup final — not by fortune, but by the slow, deliberate construction of something formidable. On Friday night in Montreal, they closed out the Canadiens 6-1, completing a postseason run of rare historical efficiency: one loss in five series, a standard of dominance the league has not witnessed in over four decades. For a franchise that has known the weight of near-misses, this moment arrives not as a surprise, but as a reckoning long in the making.
