The Carolina Hurricanes won the Stanley Cup by defeating the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 6 of the final series on June 14, 2026, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Associated Press.
The team's victory was powered by a major trade and a bold reset. General manager Don Waddell's decisions, including player trades, led the team to the cup. The final series ended 4-2 in favor of Carolina.
During the second period, right wing Jackson Blake scored a goal, contributing to the team's win. Blake celebrated with teammates after the goal. This was a significant moment in his career.
