Flyers turn back Hurricanes in overtime
Carolina Hurricanes forward Brock McGinn, taking a stick in the face, stuck cotton up both nostrils of a bloody nose and kept on playing.
Canes goalie Cam Ward, sensing the importance of the game, was fighting for every save.
Elias Lindholm, determined to score on the power play, did just that.
For the Canes, the effort was there Tuesday against the Philadelphia Flyers. The group sent out by Canes coach Bill Peters played hard. But the Flyers emerged with a 2-1 overtime victory as forward Jordan Weal beat Ward for the winner with 3.1 seconds left.
