Goalie Change Pays Off for Hurricanes in Hockey

Goaltender Martin Gerber put the Carolina Hurricanes back on track and the banged-up Buffalo Sabres on their heels in the Eastern Conference finals. Gerber, making his first start in a month, stopped 22 shots to register his first postseason shutout and victory in a 4-0 win Friday night that helped the Hurricanes tie the series at 2.

The Hurricanes not only evened up the series but stole the payday as +118 road underdogs. The final score played under the total of 6 set by sportsbooks. Bret Hedican had a goal and assist, and Eric Staal scored to extend his points streak to 14 games. Mark Recchi and Andrew Ladd also scored for Carolina.
