| Oil Leak |
 A stunning comeback, phenomenal goaltending and the bitter loss of a star player to injury all made Game 1 of the 2006 Stanley Cup Final both unforgettable and vexing for both the Carolina Hurricanes and Edmonton Oilers. There was a storm warning when the Hurricanes got the important win, 5-4, after falling into a three-goal hole in midway through the second period.
For the Oilers, the loss was especially devastating as goalie Dwayne Roloson, a leading contender for the Conn Smythe Trophy headed into the Final, suffered a knee injury late in the third period and is out for the remainder of the playoffs.
A storm was a brewin’ as The Carolina plan was to get back to playing the brand of hockey that brought the 'Canes to the Stanley Cup Final, and Wednesday night, they did, posting a 5-0 shutout against the Edmonton Oilers to take a 2-0 series lead with Game 3 in Edmonton on Saturday night.
