Carolina Hurricanes: Morning After Canes storm back to snag a point from Bruins

Skjei and Aho score early in 3rd to help Canes rally before losing in shootout

It was the proverbial mixed bag for the Hurricanes in their 4-3 shootout loss to the Bruins at PNC Arena.  Freddie Andersen made a boatload of excellent saves in the game, including back to back robberies of Tyler Bertuzzi and David Krejci late in the3 3rd period.  However, all three goals he allowed could be put in the "soft" file.  But, the Canes got a point anyway thanks to early 3rd period goals from Brady Skjei (16th) and Sebastian Aho (33rd).  What it means is that the Hurricanes have a 3-point lead in the Metropolitan Divisioin over the New Jersey Devils with a game in hand.  Jersey plays at the Islanders tomorrow night and the Hurricanes will next skate here in Raleigh against Tampa Bay on Tuesday
