Jackson Blake scored a power-play goal with 12.6 seconds left in overtime as the Carolina Hurricanes beat the New York Rangers 3-2 on Monday night in Raleigh, N.C.

Sebastian Aho, who also had an assist, and Jordan Martinook posted Carolina’s earlier goals. Nikolaj Ehlers provided two assists. Brandon Bussi made 17 saves to improve to 13-1-1 in his rookie season.

Vladislav Gavrikov and Jonny Brodzinski scored for the Rangers. Igor Shesterkin stopped 31 shots.

The Hurricanes went on an OT power play with 1:59 remaining on Matthew Robertson’s tripping penalty and they finally got a shot through to the net. Carolina improved to 9-3 in overtime results this season.

Bussi played because Pyotr Kochetkov, who shut out the Rangers last month, was nixed from the expected lineup. Coach Rod Brind’Amour said before that game that Kochetkov would undergo surgery and is likely to miss the rest of the season.

Martinook’s goal came as he battled for position in front of the crease and defenseman Jalen Chatfield’s shot ricocheted off the forward for the tying goal with 10:49 left in regulation.

New York managed only five shots on goal in the third period.

The Rangers went ahead 2-1 on Brodzinski’s fourth goal of the season with seven minutes to play in the second period, with the puck bouncing to him off the skate of Chatfield. Each of his goals has come in road games.

Both teams scored on first-period power plays.

Garvrikov converted 1:39 into the game, marking only his second point in a 12-game stretch. It was a welcome breakthrough for the Rangers, who were blanked two days earlier by the New York Islanders.

Aho put Carolina on the board with 4:03 left in the period while on a 5-on-3 advantage.

There was a slower pace for much of the second period, with the Hurricanes managing only seven shots on goal.

Martinook scored for the second game in a row for the second time this season.
