Carter Hart of the Vegas Golden Knights became the first NHL goalie to allow four or more goals in each of the first five Stanley Cup Final games, surrendering at least four in Games 1 through 5. In Game 5, Andrei Svechnikov's power-play goal for the Carolina Hurricanes pushed the score to 4-1 and extended Hart's unwanted streak. That historic slide puts extreme pressure on Vegas' defense and forces the Golden Knights to outscore opponents rather than rely on steady goaltending to win the best-of-seven series.
