Twenty years after their first championship, the Carolina Hurricanes claimed the Stanley Cup on Sunday night in Raleigh, defeating the Vegas Golden Knights 3-0 in Game 6 to complete a comeback from a 2-1 series deficit. Led by a veteran center approaching the twilight of his career and a coach who had already lifted the Cup as a player, Carolina's victory was less a story of sudden brilliance than of patient, grinding belief — the kind that survives conference final losses and near-misses across nearly a decade. In sport as in life, some things arrive only after a long and humbling wait.
