Bind'Amour makes some surprising comments after getting swept 4-0

In case you missed it last night, the Florida Panthers managed to complete their sweep of the Carolina Hurricanes in the Eastern Conference Final and, for the first time since 1996, will now play for the Stanley Cup.

The Panthers managed a 3-2 victory thanks to the late game heroics of superstar Matthew Tkachuk, who put the team up with just seconds remaining in regulation.

What an ending to a series where everything seemed to fall into places of the Panthers. 

Sure, the Panthers were the better team, there's no denying that in a four game sweep, but the Hurricanes were a worthy opponent and maybe deserved a better fate. Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour certainly seems to think so, stating after the game that his team actually didn't get swept.

Check it out:

Uh... actually you did get swept, Rod. That's exactly what happened.

I understand his sentiment though, the Hurricanes were no pushover they just couldn't seem to catch a break. Meanwhile, the Panthers caught lightning in a bottle and seem to have everything working in their favor. Sometimes that's just how the puck bounces...
