Carter Hart became the first goalie in NHL history to allow four or more goals in each of the first five games of a Stanley Cup Final. In Game 5 the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Vegas Golden Knights 4-2, Andrei Svechnikov's power-play goal made it 4-1, and the win gives Carolina a 3-2 series lead heading back to Vegas. Hart's string of four-goal games is an unwanted NHL record that puts immediate pressure on the Golden Knights to change goaltending or win Game 6 at home.
