JaccoB Slavins OT -Tor Caps Carolina Hurricanes' game 1 victory

Washington-Jaccob Slavin scored 13 parades in the extra time in the injury, and Carolina Hurricanes overtook the Washington Capitals in game 1 of its second round on Tuesday evening with 2: 1.

Logan Stankoven started the comeback with his goal in the middle of the third period from sales and defeated Logan Thompson after Aliaksei Protas' erroneous pass from Washington teammate Alexeyev's right skate on Jesperi Kotkaniemis rod. After Slavin did not achieve a power play late in the regulation, he scored 3:06 in OT from directly in the blue line to give Carolina the series.

The result conquered a dominant exertion of the Road team, although it was behind most of the game. Carolina ended with 33 shots on the net compared to only 14 for Washington. A total of six hurricanes had at least three shots on the net, including Slavin, who ended at five.

“We were over it and we knew that we just had to throw everything online,” said Slavin. “This mentality paid off at the end.”

Andersen, who has not been tested much, only allowed Protas an early goal of the second period to improve to 4: 1 in this off -season. Andersen was back after he was expelled from game 4 and the game 5 of the first round against the New Jersey Devils was missing with an obvious head injury.

“I just try to take what comes in my way and at that moment to be all the time and just stay with it,” said Andersen. “You don't know when the next big rescue will happen.”

A week ago, Andersen had to sit and watch his teammates defeated the Devils in double overtime of game 5 to secure the series. A week later he was back and delivered the type of high -quality goalkeeper that Carolina won from him when he was healthy.

“I was only looking forward to it for a while,” said Andersen. “I am glad that we could start our right foot.”

Carolina remained the only team that was perfect in this post-season and held Washington off the board twice to improve to 17-of-17. Together with Kotkaniemi and Stankoven, who exploited the mistake of Protas and Slavin with Seth Jarvis -Screening Thompson, this was the difference.

“I thought our boys played every shift hard. From the beginning of the game I liked how we played,” said Carolina trainer Rod Brind'amour. “Obviously we were down, but yes, there is a specific game plan. And I thought we were there tonight.”

Game 2 is in Washington on Thursday evening.
