Recap: Carolina Hurricanes Force Overtime, Fall to Tampa Bay Lightning 2-1 in Preseason Home Opener

It took 58:55 for the Carolina Hurricanes to get on the scoreboard on Friday night against the Lightning, but the comeback was spoiled by the Bolts, who took home a 2-1 overtime win in Raleigh.

It was a big night for Carolina as a pair of highly anticipated debuts finally happened for Sebastian Aho and Teuvo Teravainen. The two Finns were center by Elias Lindholm.

The first 20 minutes were a bit lackluster for the Hurricanes as Tampa’s Tyler Johnson opened the scoring just 5:21 into the first frame.
