If I could encapsulate the overall theme for the Carolina Hurricanes’ performance in last night’s game in one word, that word would be ‘oof’.
The Carolina Hurricanes managed to score the first goal for the first time in what feels like forever, but the Anaheim Ducks would keep up with them for the rest of the game.
The loss of Dougie Hamilton was felt all over the ice tonight, but nowhere more so than in the 3v3 overtime period.
The Anaheim Ducks capitalized on an offensive zone turnover by Andrei Svechnikov, and Sam Steel hustled down the ice on a breakaway to seal the Hurricanes’ fate.
