The Canes took Game 1 of the opening round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Senators, 2-0, as Frederik Andersen made 22 saves for his 3rd postseason shutout with the Hurricanes.  Andersen is 3-0 in playoff opening starts for Carolina with a save percentage of .975.  The game started with the two captains, Ottawa's Brady Tkachuk and Carolina's Jordan Staal, fighting in the center ice circle.  One punch squarely landed -- Staal delivering a right hand to Tkachuk's jaw -- and then it ended and the game would actually begin.  Logan Stankoven and Taylor Hall got the goals for the Hurricanes who brought their own physicality to the rink.  A season-high 57 hits were delivered, 8 from Andrei Svechnikov, 7 from Jordan Martinook and a half dozen by Stankoven!  The teams combined to go 0 for 9 on the power play including the Canes failing to convert on a total of about 2 minutes of 5-on-3 chances.
