Hurricanes Survive An Overturned OT Goal And Failed Penalty Shot To Beat Senators In Wild Game 2

The Carolina Hurricanes thought they took a 2-0 first-round series lead over the Ottawa Senators during the first overtime period. They did not.

But they did past the halfway point of double-overtime in front of their fans in the Lenovo Center Tuesday night.

Left winger Jordan Martinook made up for a failed penalty shot attempt that only came after the Hurricanes had a goal overturned in the fourth frame of the game. His first goal of the playoffs means the Hurricanes won their first two games at home and now only need to win two of a maximum five games to advance to the second round of the NHL playoffs.
