The Hurricanes did something that was not really expected in the opening game of the series as they were able to bring home a win in the game. However, the win was one that would go to overtime before it was settled and that was definitely something the Islanders would like to change. The good news is the Islanders defense did not lose any steps on the ice as they were able to have a great defensive showing. The downside is the offense could not figure out how to beat Mrazek as he was the leader for the Hurricanes on the ice in the 1-0 win in overtime.
