Reasoning: To win the Stanley Cup Finals, Carolina must win the Eastern Conference Finals first (the Stanley Cup Finals is between the Eastern and Western Conference champions). So winning the Stanley Cup implies winning the Eastern Conference Finals. The reverse does not hold — they could win the ECF and lose the Stanley Cup Finals.
