The Carolina Hurricanes shocked the New York Islanders Monday night, scoring the game-tying and game-winning goals just nine seconds apart in the third period, giving them a 2-0 lead in their Eastern Conference Round 1 series.
"This one's long from over, but right now, this one hurts the gut," Islanders captain Anders Lee said after the 5-3 loss in Raleigh, North Carolina.
With his team's net empty, Hurricanes center Sebastian Aho deflected an Andrei Svechnikov pass to tie the game with 2:15 left in the third period, erasing a 3-0 lead the Islanders had built in the first 23:54 of the game.
