And hope. That’s fast slipping away, too.I

In what might be their most crushing loss of a season gone awry, the Hurricanes were beaten 6-4 by the Boston Bruins on Tuesday at PNC Arena.

David Pastrnak had a hat trick for the Bruins, which scored five times in the third period. The Hurricanes led 4-1 early in the third, after a shorthanded goal by Brock McGinn. They had taken a 3-1 lead in the second as Sebastian Aho and Teuvo Teravainen scored on power plays and Justin Williams at even strength.
