The Carolina Hurricanes were hoping to start off the month of December on a positive note but instead found themselves down, 1-0 just 19 seconds into the game as they went on to lose to the Seattle Kraken, 4-2 on Tuesday night at the Lenovo Center.
The Canes were outshot, 6-5 in the opening period and 14-2 in the second as they had a hard time finding their typical game.
It looked like they would be able to overcome their tough start with a fired up third period.
Martin Necas started things off in the period when he tied the game at 2 early on.
