Nikolaj Ehlers scored with 2:08 remaining in overtime to give the Carolina Hurricanes a 1-0 victory against the Calgary Flames on Sunday in Raleigh, N.C.

Ehlers notched his fifth goal of the season by crashing the net and converting on a delivery from Taylor Hall, who had the puck coming down the left side. Sean Walker also assisted on the goal.

Brandon Bussi made 15 saves for his first career shutout as the Hurricanes won their second game in a row.

Devin Cooley stopped 16 shots for Calgary in what was a matchup between rookie goalies.

The winning goal came on Carolina’s second shot of the extra session. Bussi didn’t face a shot in the extra session after making five saves in the third period.

Bussi gloved Matt Coronato’s breakaway shot with 11 1/2 minutes left in the third period. With about five minutes to play, Carolina’s Jackson Blake received a pass alone in the slot, but he shot wide.

Eric Robinson created a buzz for the Hurricanes a bit later as he skated down the left side, but he had a tough angle on the release and Cooley made a relatively basic stop. Hurricanes forward Jordan Martinook’s redirection just under the one-minute mark was collected by Cooley.

Each team had 15 shots on goal through regulation, marking well below the average for each team — 33.9 for Carolina, 29.7 for Calgary.

The Hurricanes, playing the third game of a seven-game homestand, have won eight of their first 12 (8-3-1) home games.

The teams combined for six shots across the first 17 minutes.

Going to the third period, both teams had 10 shots on goal. Each team failed a power play over the first two periods and failed another apiece in the third.
