It was a must-win game for the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday night after their disappointing 3-0 loss in Columbus on Friday.
The start wasn’t ideal, but the Hurricanes charged back from an early deficit to beat the Buffalo Sabres by a final score of 4-2 at PNC Arena.
Not unlike Friday night, the Hurricanes found themselves on the wrong side of an early goal. Just over two minutes in, Jeff Skinner managed to bank the puck off of Curtis McElhinney’s stick in front and through the veteran goalie’s legs.
