After a "loosey-goosey" start, the Hurricanes found their hunger in the final frame, riding Will Carrier’s first goal of the season to a gritty road victory.
Carolina Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour addressed the media following his team's 5-3 road victory over the New York Islanders at UBS Arena. Despite an early lead, Brind'Amour noted the Hurricanes played "loosey-goosey" through the middle frames before finding their hunger in the third period to seal the win.
Will Carrier scored his first goal of the season to secure the game-winner, while goaltender Brandon Bussi stopped 24 shots to earn his first victory since October 10. Brind'Amour praised the late penalty kill and third-period effort, emphasizing the necessity of playing the right way to win in the NHL.
