This season's Eastern Conference Final coverage will also feature an NHL on TNT Alt Cast with Biz & Will Arnett (+Special Guests) for Game 2 of the series, on Thursday, May 22. Viewers can watch the game live alongside two of the sport's biggest fans as they tell stories, talk big plays and hear from a few special guests.
In the hunt for back-to-back Stanley Cups, the Cats moved past the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Battle of Florida in best of five First Round series and defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs in an epic seven-game showdown in the Second Round.
The Hurricanes return to the Eastern Conference Final for the second time in three years - again against the Panthers - seeking to hoist the Stanley Cup for the second time in franchise history. The Canes served both the New Jersey Devils and the Washington Capitals a gentleman's sweep, led by captain Staal, Svechnikov and Sebastian Aho.
