Defenseman Dougie Hamilton scored on the first attempt of
the shootout, and that was enough for the Carolina Hurricanes in a rousing 3-2
victory against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night at Raleigh, N.C.
The Hurricanes made it past regulation when captain
Justin Williams scored the tying goal with 1:56 left in the third period after
the Hurricanes opted to go with an extra skater.
Pittsburgh's Kris Letang scored with 4:37 remaining to
dispel some of the growing frustration for the Penguins, but they couldn't hold
on.
The Penguins were repeatedly denied by Carolina goalie
Petr Mrazek in the third period.
Brock McGinn scored earlier for the Hurricanes, who've
pieced together consecutive home victories during a crucial part of the
schedule. This marked the second game in a five-game homestand.
Jake Guentzel provided a goal and an assist for the
Penguins. Bryan Rust had two assists while Sidney Crosby registered his 60th
assist of the season.
Pittsburgh (89 points) is third and Carolina (87) is
fourth in the Metropolitan Division. The Penguins, who kicked off a four-game
road trip, are 6-2-2 across their last 10 games.
Penguins goalie Matt Murray posted 37 saves.
Mrazek finished with 36 saves, including 17 in the third
period.
It was an active first period, though it ended scoreless.
The Penguins had perhaps the best chance early when the puck got past Mrazek,
but Hamilton was there to sweep it away.
Mrazek made a nifty stop in the second period on Crosby's
attempt after he came out of the penalty box following a stretch of 4-on-4
hockey.
McGinn opened the scoring, marking Carolina's first goal
in two games on home ice against Pittsburgh this season. Justin Faulk found
McGinn with a pass in the slot for the scoring play.
Guentzel tied it 38 seconds later with his 37th goal of
the season.
Penguins right wing Phil Kessel played in his 320th
consecutive game, setting a franchise record.
