The Carolina Hurricanes faced down one of their most challenging portions of the season to this point last week, tasked with closing out their mighty first half with a four-games-in-six-days stretch.
Starting with a 4-3 overtime win against the Pacific Division-leading Vegas Golden Knights, the Canes rattled off four straight wins, and they did it by braving through a quartet of tight, one-goal games.
Fresh off of a lowly performance against the New Jersey Devils, the Hurricanes blew a two-goal lead in the third period to the Knights, but their stars shined bright in overtime.
