Hurricanes need more from power play

The Carolina Hurricanes finally found a way to score a power-play goal Saturday.

The Canes got bodies around the net, Elias Lindholm batted the puck out of the air like a baseball coach hitting an infield grounder, Sebastian Aho was in the right spot to receive it and Aho buried a shot past Columbus goalie Sergei Bobrovsky.

It was the Canes’ first power-play score in eight games. Unfortunately for Carolina, the Canes had five other power-play chances in Saturday’s game — three in the third period — and came away empty in a 3-2 loss to at Nationwide Arena in Columbus.
