Okay, we’re going to skip the lengthy intro.
The Carolina Hurricanes lost 3-2 to the Ottawa Senators. Let's talk about last night.
Tone-Setting First Period
The opening period just about summed up what has been going wrong for the Hurricanes as of late.
In the first 20 minutes, Carolina outshot Ottawa 20-3, had ten high-danger shot attempts, and benefited from two power plays. And they got outscored 1-0.
Around the 2:30 mark, Seth Jarvis centered a beautiful pass to Jesper Fast, who got shut down by former Hurricane Anton Forsberg on a golden opportunity.
