The Carolina Hurricanes’ home opener Friday was a reversal from the season-opening loss in Nashville. Unfortunately, the end result was the same.
The Canes took control of the game early, outshooting the Red Wings 18-2 in the first period, and despite still giving up the first goal of the game midway through the second entered the third period with a one-goal lead. But Carolina could not hold off Detroit, who scored three third-period goals to top the Canes, 4-3.
Here's a closer look at Friday’s loss that dropped Carolina to 0-2 on the season.
