NHL News: Hurricanes rally past Oilers in overtime

Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Sebastian Aho scored with seven seconds left in overtime and the visiting Carolina Hurricanes rallied to beat the Edmonton Oilers 3-2 on Tuesday night.

The Hurricanes trailed 2-0 entering the third period.

Aho scored on a one-timer off a pass from Martin Necas moments after Carolina goalie Frederik Andersen had stopped Leon Draisaitl at the other end. Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner made the initial save on Aho, but the Hurricanes retained the puck.

Necas had a goal and two assists for the Hurricanes, and Shayne Gostisbehere scored in his fourth consecutive game. Aho and Gostisbehere each had a goal and an assist, and Andersen made 33 saves, including five in overtime.

Edmonton’s Connor McDavid, who went the first four games of the season without a goal, scored twice and has three goals in his past three games. Skinner made 30 saves.

McDavid gave the Oilers a 1-0 lead at 3:34 of the first period when he entered the zone on a three-on-three rush, kept the puck and beat Andersen with a wrist shot from the left circle.

McDavid made it 2-0 with a power-play goal at 2:30 of the second period. McDavid worked a give-and-go with Draisaitl in the right circle, drove the net and poked in his own rebound after Andersen made the initial save.

Skinner preserved the 2-0 lead when he made a point-blank save on Aho with 1:08 left in the middle period.

The Oilers goalie made a pair of acrobatic saves to open the third period during a penalty kill, but Carolina retained the puck. At the 44-second mark of the third period, Gostisbehere fed Necas at the bottom of the left circle, then one-timed the return past Skinner, pulling the Hurricanes within 2-1.

Andersen later made a pad save to thwart Jeff Skinner’s bid for an insurance goal.

Necas tied the score 2-2 at 13:29 of the third period. He entered the zone on the rush, passed to Eric Robinson on his left, went to the net and deflected the return pass beyond Skinner.
