The Carolina Hurricanes secured a 2-0 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights in Game Six of the Stanley Cup Final, completing their championship win last night. Jordan Staal was named the Conn Smythe Trophy winner, becoming the oldest recipient in history. The winning goalie, Brandon Bussi, made a significant impact after debuting earlier this season. This championship represents a notable achievement for analytics and promotes smaller player success within the NHL, as the Hurricanes’ lineup included five players under 6 feet tall. The league continues to see roster changes, with the San Jose Barracuda announcing their opening night for October 3, while the PWHL San Jose has signed two Czech Olympians to their roster.
