Vanecek Hangs on for Victory in OT

Vitek Vanecek allowed five goals on 32 shots in Monday’s 6-5 overtime win against the Golden Knights. Vanecek got off to a shaky start, surrendering an early first-period tally, then his offense staked him to a 3-1 lead. He allowed four unanswered goals in the second period, but once again his offense bailed him out. Luckily for Vanecek, Tyler Toffoli and Curtis Lazar were on another plane, and the veteran Toffoli made a winner of the goaltender at 2:35 of overtime to send the crowd away happy. Vanecek has a 16-7-2 record, 3.28 GAA and .883 save percentage in 27 appearances in 2023-24. This was the 11th occasion this season in which he surrendered at least four markers.

Martin Picks up Win for Hurricanes

Spencer Martin stopped 26 of 28 shots in Wednesday’s 3-2 win over the Bruins. What a start for Martin in his Hurricanes debut. He stood tall against the mighty Bruins, keeping them at bay for two periods, saving all 15 shots, until Brad Marchand scored back-to-back goals in the final period to make it 2-2. Jordan Martinook eventually scored the game winner to seal the win for Carolina. Martin finished with .929 save percentage and kicked out all four power-play shots by Boston. After being claimed on waivers from Columbus, Martin is doing his best to stick with Carolina as the backup to Antti Raanta.
