The last two games between the Carolina Hurricanes and Nashville Predators in Round 1 of their Stanley Cup Playoff series required extra time, so why not tonight as well?
Hurricanes captain Jordan Staal was the hero on this occasion, whacking the puck out of midair past goaltender Juuse Saros at 1:45 of overtime and giving the Hurricanes a 3-2 series advantage over Nashville:
