This was a back and forth game that could have gone either way, but in the end, it was the Hurricanes that prevailed as their newest hero is Ian Cole fired home the overtime winner to ensure the Canes open the series with a win. It must be said that this was far from being a convincing performance for the team, but I don’t care if they don’t look great as long as they win.
When the Hurricanes sleepwalk through forty minutes as they did in the first period of this game, they’re going to get beaten more often than not.
