Recap: Martinook’s First NHL Hat Trick Lifts Hurricanes to 4-1 Win Over Panthers

Game six of the Carolina Hurricanes’ pivotal six-game homestand provided the team an opportunity to really take the next step forward in this early 2018-19 season.

A win would extend their winning streak to three games and continue their wave of momentum into the final week of November.

A loss would cut that short wave of positivity off and be a pretty disappointing way to end what had been a good homestand to that point.

The Hurricanes went with the former.

It was a fun, exciting, and convincing 4-1 win for the Hurricanes at PNC Arena on Friday night and, with it, they secured nine out of a possible 12 points on the homestand.
