Game 12 Recap - Hurricanes 4, Islanders 3 OT

The Carolina Hurricanes fell behind 3-0, but never gave up and kept the pressure on before overcoming the New York Islanders in overtime at the UBS Arena on Saturday night.

Jesperi Kotkaniemi tied the score with four minutes and change in the third and then Sebastian Aho won it with a slick shot in the extra period.

The win moves the Canes to a 7-5-0 record and drops the Islanders to 5-3-2.

Carolina was outshooting the home team in every period but could not solve hot goaltender, Ilya Sorokin who was making save after save.

In the meantime, Antti Raanta was playing well in his own right but was facing some tough chances, including a two on zero opportunity as the Islanders scored an easy shorthanded chance.
