Sebastian Aho’s goal with 31 seconds remaining in overtime gave the Carolina Hurricanes a 4-3 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Friday night in Raleigh, N.C.

Andrei Svechnikov scored two first-period goals and later added an assist and Taylor Hall also found the net for the Hurricanes, who won for the fifth time in their past six games. Shayne Gostisbehere provided three assists, including one on the game-winner, while Pyotr Kochetkov made 14 saves.

Aho added an assist.

Elias Pettersson had a goal and an assist while Max Sasson and Conor Garland also scored for the Canucks. Kevin Lankinen made 34 saves, including three in overtime before Aho’s seventh goal of the season and 17th career overtime game-winner.

The Hurricanes lost team scoring leader Seth Jarvis in the first period with an upper-body injury, and he didn’t return. He absorbed a hit from a teammate’s stick, apparently in the face.

The Canucks, coming off a 1-2-1 homestand, were playing the first of three road games in a four-night span.

Hall, on his 34th birthday, pulled the Hurricanes even 6:26 into the third period. His fourth goal this season made it 3-3.

There were four goals scored — and a 2-2 tie — before 10 minutes had elapsed.

Sasson started the scoring just 2:45 into the game, before Svechnikov struck twice in a span of 54 seconds, including a power-play strike to give the Hurricanes a 2-1 lead.

Vancouver tied the score as Pettersson tallied short-handed after a giveaway by Hurricanes defenseman Sean Walker.

Garland’s power-play goal 3:13 into the second period gave the Canucks a 3-2 edge.

The Hurricanes outshot Vancouver 34-16 through regulation, including an 18-8 edge in the second period.
