Montreal Canadiens are eliminated after dominant loss to Hurricanes, as Canada's Stanley Cup drought stretches to 33 years

Yahoo Sports reports that It’ll be yet another year without a Canadian team winning the Stanley Cup.

The Montreal Canadiens, the last team from Canada left in the NHL playoffs, fell to the Carolina Hurricanes in the Eastern Conference finals on Friday.

The 6-1 loss eliminates Montreal from the playoffs, and ensures that the Stanley Cup drought for Canadian teams extends to 33 years.

The Hurricanes took control of the game from the start, scoring three goals in the first period and adding two more in the second.

The crowd in Carolina didn’t hold back with the disrespect as the Canes kept piling it on, yelling Montreal’s “olé” chant in the second period.

Cole Caufield finally scored one for the Habs in the third period, but by then it was too little and too late.
