Despite giving up four goals, Kevin Lankinen played well for the Blackhawks and had to make saves on point blank chances. The same can be said about James Reimer, however. He certainly can’t be faulted for any of the goals and Carolina’s defense group gave up more chances than they’d probably would’ve liked, but Reimer was strong for the Hurricanes. Once again, he came up big in the shootout as well.
It wasn’t a perfect game for the Hurricanes by any means and defensively, there were too many bad turnovers and opposing forwards being left open. That said, Carolina’s forward group was getting great chances of their own and the Hurricanes continued their hot start to the season with another win.
