Hurricanes shut out Golden Knights 3-0 to win Stanley Cup Final

The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Vegas Golden Knights 3-0 in Game Six of the 2026 Stanley Cup Final on June 14. Fatigue played a role for the Golden Knights, who struggled to keep up after a long season. Taylor Hall opened the scoring for the Hurricanes with a breakaway goal early in the game, and Logan Stankoven doubled the lead with a second-period goal. Nikolaj Ehlers sealed the shutout with an empty-net goal. The Hurricanes secured their first Stanley Cup since 2006, with Jordan Staal earning the Conn Smythe Award for his performance in the series. The Golden Knights will now focus on the offseason, including the draft and player contracts.
