You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Carolina is alive and kicking in the Eastern Conference finals. Nikolaj Ehlers, in his first season with the Hurricanes, found open ice up the middle and buried one past Jakub Dobes at three twenty-nine of overtime, lifting Carolina past Montreal two to one in the series. The Canes dodged what could have been a brutal two-nothing hole heading north, and now this thing is a genuine series.
Speaking of genuine series, the Knicks are rolling through Cleveland with a two-nothing lead heading into Game three of the NBA Eastern Conference finals tonight. New York has been the story of this postseason, and the Cavaliers desperately need a home performance to remind everyone they belong in this conversation. Watch Garland and Mitchell — Cleveland needs them both to show up in a big way.
And from the diamond, the Dodgers came back to take down Milwaukee despite the Brewers drawing first blood again. Teoscar Hernandez went deep for a three-run shot in the fourth to tie it, and Los Angeles kept right on rolling from there. That Dodgers lineup is relentless — they just keep finding ways to make you pay.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
