The Golden Knights might need their goalie to steal Game 6
Luckily for them, they have a Stanley Cup winner sitting on the bench — one with playoff pedigree, a history of playing lights-out after being thrown into a series, and a lot to prove.
My column ⤵️
Brandon Bussi has been stellar all night.
Theodore's shot hit the post, and Bussi lunged over to stuff the rebound attempt by Hertl.
Ehlers bats the puck out of the air, and over the glass.
That's his 2nd delay of game penalty of the game, and Carolina's 3rd.
Vegas will have a 6-on-4 coming up with 2:13 to play.
Final- Hurricanes 4, Golden Knights 2
Carolina pushes Vegas to the brink. The Cup will be in the building on Sunday. The Golden Knights will try to force a Game 7 back here in Raleigh.

Mark Stone catches Jalen Chatfield with a high stick, and it's a double-minor.
Carolina to the power play up 3-1 with 11:22 to play.
Brandon Bussi robs Howden's redirect from the doorstep with his glove.
Holy smokes what a play by Nikolaj Ehlers.
He spins to catch a pass that was behind him, and finds Svechnikov on the backdoor for a tap in.
4-1 Carolina
Carter Hart was the first goalie in NHL history to allow 4+ goals in each of the first four games of a Stanley Cup Final.
Now he's the first to do it in five.
Pavel Dorofeyev scores his second of the game to make it 4-2 with 6:11 to play.
