Carolina Hurricanes (Hockey)

The defenseman’s second career playoff goal capped a late comeback by the Hurricanes, who trailed most of the way. But Sebastian Aho finally pushed one past Shesterkin in the final minutes of the third period to send the game into OT.

Defensemen Jaccob Slavin and Tony DeAngelo scored first-period goals for the Hurricanes and Vincent Trocheck added an empty-netter. The series has yet to see a team secure a road win.

Boston’s David Pastrnak knocked Raanta from the game midway through the first period when he struck the goaltender in the head with a gloved hand as he tried to skate past him. Rookie Pyotr Kochetkov came on in relief of Raanta to finish with 30 saves.

The group will rebrand as the "Carolina Hurricanes Warriors" and use the National Hockey League team's logo.

Andrei Svechnikov provided two assists for the Hurricanes. Frederik Andersen made 29 saves for his league-leading 29th victory. Derek Ryan, one day after his first career hat trick, scored an unassisted goal for the Oilers, who were on their third stop of a five-game road trip.
