In one of the most exciting National Hockey League games I’ve had the pleasure to watch, the Carolina Hurricanes drop an amazing second-period comeback, falling to the Toronto Maple Leafs.
One could say that the game was a foregone conclusion at the end of the first five minutes of the game after Toronto took a commanding three-goal lead, two of which came during an extended power play on a high-sticking double-minor from Brett Pesce.
This series of goals forced head coach Rod Brind’Amour‘s hand, and James Reimer found himself replaced by Petr Mrazek.
