After giving up a 2-0 lead, the Carolina Hurricanes battled back to earn a point after trailing in the third period of a 4-3 overtime loss to the Boston Bruins Tuesday night. While the Blue Jackets and Penguins both won, the single point gained keeps the Canes in third place in the metro (ROW tiebreaker on Pittsburgh, two points up on Columbus).
While fighting back to earn a point against a tough opponent on the road is admirable, and there was plenty of good (Sebastian Aho, Curtis McElhinney, Justin Williams), a turnover by Justin Faulk on the game-winning goal and a minus-1 night for the power play kept Carolina from getting the crucial second point.
