NHL Highlights | Lightning vs. Hurricanes | September 22, 2025

we’re very familiar with and there are a ton of 
them that had a great preseason last year and played well when they played in the NHL during 
the regular season last year. And here we go. Face off at center ice Carolina clad in their 
white road jerseys. They’ll come up with a puck, carry it across into the Tampa zone. Taylor Hall 
with it along the right wing board. Shot right on Sorum in the corner now. Robot with a quick shot 
from the right circle. Save made by Johansson and Kane’s keeping the pressure on. Trident at 
center is back on the wing. Faceoff one by Tampa and work this into the top of the slot and 
that shot caught and hung on. Nice early mechanics for Primo. Face off to the right of the Kane’s 
net minder. Camp wins the draw. It’ll go back. Santini with a shot that goes off the inboards in 
the blue paint. It’ll be deflected away into the left corner and back to the point. Good work by 
the Hurricanes. to knock this one over the zone is Javanni Smith trying to find his way onto an NHL 
roster. He’s on a PTO with his Carolina Hurricanes team. Started his career with the Detroit Red 
Wings. Carolina trying to find a way to clear the zone. The pucks along the end boards taken 
away behind Primo, but Carolina can’t clear. Kept in low drive put on by Connor Geeki and a nice 
save made there. There you turn. Primo didn’t take a breath and made a nice save on that quick 
shot from Geeki. And Geeki another part of that trade with the Mammoth that sent Sergeev to Utah. 
A shot from the right point handled kicked away by Primo along the left wing boards would be kept in 
again by Tampa and a long shot kicked away. Primo the sustained excellence and where they’ve made 
trades to keep it going. They’re trying to find players anywhere for the system and SOAK could 
be a player that they look for as Carolina step this one back working with it. Dominic Fans 
working this one in. Johansson has to make the save and a loose puck will be pounced on and 
Boston University Terrier. I remember talking to his head coach Jay Pandalfa longtime NHLer about 
him. He just made a great play before the break. Now a bouncing puck off the draw. Carolina hammers 
that one as LGO stepped into it and another save made by Johansson and deflects it back for Blake. 
Blake high in between the circles with it. He’ll go back across Bay Ruther with a shot right on. 
Shoulder save made. Tampa tries to clear Kent. Missiles just wide of the net. Stank over to the 
rebound. Top of the right circle. He’ll go down low for Blake. Back to Stanko. Back down low to 
Blake. He’ll work that one into the slot and Jo is shot right on but handled by Johansson. and 
still looking for a goal. Now here’s a chance for Carolina with a keep in that shot wired as 
Fore read the play and jumped all the way up on it and hammered that one just wide and this 
will be kept in. There’s a long drive out in front. Johansson makes the save. That was one of 
the things going back to last year. Now Carolina going back into the Tampa zone. Taylor Hall with a 
move and a shot right on Johansson makes the save. Rebounds loose and the Lightning able to clear. 
Oh, what a nifty move there from the former number one overall draft pick of the Edmonton Oilers, 
Taylor Hall. Now Carolina trying to clear. Can’t do it. There’s a low drive. 12 seconds remaining 
off of Stansion. It’ll go, but it’ll be kicked free and McCain’s Bradley Nadau wants to clear. 
Can’t do it. A chance out in front in the slot. Geeky center hit shot rattles and they’ll score. 
Now it’s did it beat the clock? I don’t know. Now the question or the question is did it beat the 
clock? Do they do you have review? You typically don’t have review in these preseason games unless 
they’re televised. I mean, heck of a release. Littleberg, a guy that I think of him, I think 
of a guy that’s a really good open ice hitter. Your radio dial or however you’re listening 
to us. And the Kings win the draw back. This shot is put right on and save is made as 
Steven Santini as his defensive partner. And now a little bit of room for the Lightning 
into the Keane zone. A deflected shot right on and Primo has to be ready to make the save 
as Dylan Duke sent one. Nikesian gets to it at the left point. Now he finds Stanovven down 
low. Goal line extended. Stanovven steps out. Sent out in front and a chance there for Blake 
Johansson with a good save there. Here comes a chance for Jo looking. Nikesian shot that goes 
off of a leg. Out of the box is Lillberg. He’s got a break. Liberg on Primo. Primo with a 
dazzling pad save on the breakaway on Emil Liber. It’ll rim it around to it. He’ll get it 
out in front. That’ll be centered. Shot right on. Chance for the go. That’ll be deflected away. 
Brenammore. Moer keeps it into the blue line for Chaffy. They send this one down low. Duke now 
back for Moser. Moser shot through. They score. JJ Moser the defenseman who came across. There 
was out in front some traffic and it looks like Mitchell Chaffy got a piece and it looks like 
Mitchell Chaffy got a piece on the way by. So give the goal to Mitchell Chaffy. A power play goal 
and Tampa goes up two nothing. Yeah, I thought that uh right no stick for Tampa. And now a chance 
here put out in front. Stay open redirect and able unable to find the back of the net as the Canes 
with a glorious chance there. Johansson does a good job of keeping out Jackson Blake’s effort. 
Now here’s Hall out in front and Johansson. 5 minute and 45se second mile. Well 
done. Personal best. My golf court, my golf cart had never been faster. And now 
here’s a penalty coming up and oh mercy Kaden Primo getting across from Boris Kachuk. What 
a save with his glove pushing on the delayed penalty. Peltier with it back behind the net. 
Kachuk spin his drive goes off of Primo. Bench shot by Peltier in the save made by Primo. 
What a save. Temporary blindness when it’s behind the net. Really good stop. He’s had two 
gems in this period. 1228 to go in the third. Carolina still trailing Tampa two nothing. 
Hopefully whenever you know Russia gets back to international competition. My gosh, I looked 
at it when Ro Russia’s roster would be in the Olympics. They’re strong as ever. It would 
have been one of the favorites. Now here’s a nice play by Carolina to keep in a score. Kevin 
Le. Oh, what a move after the Hurricanes did a heck of a job keeping it in. Tampa, I think, 
thought that they had a clear well on its way and it was Tyson Jo that kept the puck in. Puck 
support from Leang. Think that there was offside on the play prior to the goal. Oh boy. Tampa 
challenging for offside. Tyson Jo it looked like kept the puck in. I didn’t know that this game 
is just being streamed. To tell you the truth, I didn’t know that you could challenge. After 
Cook’s challenge review, it was turned to be played offside. No goal. 159 as now has it. Kings 
win the draw. Side of the nets and out in front and Johansson gets a piece on the Blake offering. 
Well, the Kane’s good puck movement there right to left centering it out in front of Stankov. He 
knocked off of his stick, but Hall’s there to try to make a play. There’s the Canes trying to get 
some help here. Le Bank on the power play in place of Jo. Jo had a 10-minute miscon from the score 
on the power play. Deflected and Logan Stanovven with the net front, gets the piece and Carolina 
gets on the board. This time it will stand. It’s two to one. Two of the three goals in the game. 
redirections. The did a good job quarterbacking, moving his feet, eventually getting it to Le Bank 
who fired at the net and just gave Stain Coven a chance. 10 seconds left. Work to the side 
of the net. Blake with it. Blake will turn. Hall spins. Stuff chance. That’s deflected 
away. 3 seconds left. Pucks in the corner. 1 second left and Tampa will hang on and 
the Canes will be on the wrong side of a 2-1
