Philipp Grubauer and the Seattle Kraken are threatened with extinction in the NHL playoffs. The Carolina Hurricanes made it into the next round on Friday night (06/12/2023).

Seattle conceded a 5-2 loss to the Dallas Stars and are trailing 3-2 on wins in the best-of-seven series in the Western Conference semifinals. Dallas just needs one more win to progress. The next game is in Seattle on Sunday night.

Grubauer, who had to go on the bench after conceding five goals in the final third of Tuesday’s 3:6, conceded two more early goals from the first four shots on his goal. The Rosenheimer then stabilized, but could not prevent the third defeat against the stars.

Now against Florida or Toronto

In the Eastern Conference, the Carolina Hurricanes had previously made it through to the next round perfectly. The 3-2 overtime win against the New Jersey Devils was their fourth win in five games of the series. The Hurricanes now face either the Florida Panthers or the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Panthers lead 3-1 in the series.
