Jeff Skinner scored his second goal with 1:58 left, and the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Arizona Coyotes 6-5 on Thursday night despite giving up a weird goal when the puck stuck in goalie Cam Ward’s skate.
Skinner added an assist, and Valentin Zykov scored two goals, the second tying it at 5 with 10:14 remaining. Phil Di Giuseppe had a goal and two assists, and Jaccob Slavin had three assists.
Teuvo Teravainen also scored, and Ward made 28 saves for Carolina. The Hurricanes had lost six of eight.
Alex Goligoski scored twice, including arguably the most bizarre goal of the season when Ward unknowingly skated across the red line with the puck lodged in his right skate.
