The Blue Jackets outshot the Canes 29 to 27. Carolina had only 1 power play while Columbus stacked up five.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">After a strong start for the Canes, Seth Jarvis was called for a double minor after replay review showed a high sticking on Columbus\u2019 Zach Werenski.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">It didn\u2019t take long for the Blue Jackets to capitalize, with Mason Marchment beating Brandon Bussi from the slot to take a 1-0 lead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Charlie Coyle added Columbus\u2019 second power play goal of the game on a pass from Adam Fantilli with less than a minute remaining in the first period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Blue Jackets outshot the Canes 11-6 in the first 20 minutes, and heading into the second, Carolina found themselves down 2-0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Bussi came up with multiple big saves in the first four minutes of the second period, including a breakaway denial on Mathieu Olivier.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Newly acquired Nicolas Deslaurier, making his Hurricanes debut, dropped the gloves with Olivier at center ice in a heavyweight tilt. With Carlina out of sorts and down two goals, Deslaurier attempted to get the momentum back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Frustrations continued to boil over for the Canes, with Sebastian Aho getting into it with Dante Fabbro in front of the net.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">On the ensuing four-on-four, Andrei Svechnikov deked Jet Greaves to find the back of the net and put Carolina on the board, cutting the deficit to 2-1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Columbus responded when Bussi fell behind the net trying to play the puck, and even though Alexander Nikishin made an initial diving save, Danton Heinen made no mistake on the rebound to take a 3-1 lead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Denton Mateychuk piled on with another goal 34 seconds later to extend the Blue Jackets\u2019 lead to 4-1.
