"The Hurricanes stuffed the Capitals into a locker. Mark Jankowski scored after a chip-in from the blue line that really ought to have been cleared. Sebastian Aho scored on a gimme of a turnover from John Carlson. Shayne Gostisbehere made it 3-0 early in the second with a softy. Then the Caps mounted their comeback, kicking off with known-scorer Hendrix Lapierre's second goal of the season. Dylan Strome drew the Caps within one goal thanks to a terrific assist from Aliaksei Protas. Jakob Chychrun tied it with his signature shot. Justin Sourdif clutched it in overtime. Caps win! Huge!"
"Declan Chisholm blew a clear and then fell over on the first Canes goal. John Carlson got the primary assist on the second Canes goal. Stevenson is going to see the third on the inside of his eyelids tonight. Three savage goof-ups to spot the visitors a three-goal lead. With Thompson and Lindgren unavailable, Hershey's Clay Stevenson suited up in red for the first time this season and the second time ever. He gave up five to Pittsburgh in his last NHL start, so this was a marked improvement. But boy do the Caps need their goalies back. Canada could probably use a healthy Logan Thompson too."
Washington fell behind 3-0 after early goals from Mark Jankowski, Sebastian Aho and Shayne Gostisbehere, with turnovers and defensive miscues contributing to the deficit. The Capitals mounted a comeback beginning with Hendrix Lapierre's goal, followed by Dylan Strome's goal off an Aliaksei Protas assist and Jakob Chychrun's tying shot. Justin Sourdif scored the overtime winner to complete the rally. Several regulars were unavailable, and Clay Stevenson started in goal in place of injured or unavailable goalies, producing a better showing than his previous NHL start.
