Recap: Staal’s overtime winner puts Canes on the board

She’s a series now.

Those were the words of former Hurricanes play by play man John Forslund in 2006, when Eric Staal gave the Canes a game three overtime win in Montreal after losing the first two games on home ice. They hold true tonight after Eric’s younger brother, Jordan Staal, gave the Canes a 3-2 overtime win in game three against the Tampa Bay Lightning to put Carolina on the board in this series.

After the Canes killed the remainder of a penalty left over from the end of regulation to start overtime, Carolina got its own chance to end the game on a power play after Nikita Kucherov was whistled for holding the stick in the offensive zone.
