Carolina Hurricanes at Ottawa Senators
· National Hockey League
Hurricanes beat Senators 4-1 to take the Eastern Conference lead
Rookie goalie Brandon Bussi 35 saves for the victory.
Jalen Chatfield’s cross-ice pass sprung Mark Jankowski on an odd-man rush, where he fed Carrier cross-slot for an easy backhand tap-in to open the scoring just four minutes into the game. Only two minutes later, Jarvis beat James Reimer cleanly with a top-corner snipe from the faceoff circle.
Andrei Svechnikov made it 4-0 in the second.
Tim Stutzle scored for Ottawa.
Before the game, the Senators honored former coach Jacques Martin for his induction into the Senators’ Ring of Honor.
