The Power Play:It's been an interesting series already for the Canes man advantage. Under a microscope after an underwhelming final month of the regular season and being a reason for the club's downfall this time last year, the units scored both goals en route to a Game 1 victory. They scored once on six tries in a bit of a fluky fashion in Game 2's win, but the sentiment was that their 0/4 performance in Game 3 cost them a chance to go up three games in the series. However, back as a point of emphasis on Sunday, they responded with multiple goals again in Game 4 on their way to their 5-2 victory. Another successful evening tonight may remove the question mark beside the topic, at least for a few days.
Super Stef:An integral part of the power play this series has been Stefan Noesen, who has factored in on four of the team's five goals this series. Totaling two assists on Sunday, including a sweet no-look setup to Martin Necas, Noesen's four power play points lead the team and are tied for the third-most by any NHL skater thus far through Round One.
