The Carolina Hurricanes fell behind 3-0, then scored three times in the third to tie the game before losing in overtime to the Detroit Red Wings, 4-3 on Monday night in Detroit.
The Canes scored twice on the powerplay and one time shorthanded as they took advantage of their opportunities in this one.
After a nice ceremony for Sergei Fedorov before the game, the home team jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first.
The Red Wings then made it 3-0 in the second period and it looked like the Hurricanes might be done but apparently they did not feel that way.
Jackson Blake got things started with a nicely placed shot off a pretty pass by Taylor Hall to get the Canes on the board.
About three minutes later, Sebastian Aho and Seth Jarvis teamed up for another shortie this season. Jarvis made a beautiful shot off his partner’s pass to make it, 3-2.
Near the end of the game, the Canes had a 5-on-3 powerplay and Shayne Gostisbehere blasted in a shot to tie the game.
The contest eventually went to overtime where both teams struggled to get anything going until Andrew Copp knocked Gostisbehere to the ice so that he was wide open in front of Andersen.
Copp got the pass and snuck the puck past the Carolina goalie for the game-winner.
Both Gostisbehere and Aho complained to the refs after the goal but were only able to pick up 10 minute misconducts for their trouble.
The Hurricanes outshot the Wings 34-18 for the game.
There is no rest for the weary as they fly to St. Louis to continue their back-to-back on Tuesday.
