Svech happened as Canes rally late to stun Columbus, 3-2

Andrei Svechnikov scored his first of the year in his 12th game of the season helping the Hurricanes to a 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Sunday night.  Carolina and Columbus started the third period still looking for the game's first goal, but Karil Marchecnko and Johhny Gaudreau each scored -- with both goals deflecting off Carolina defenseman Brady Skjei -- to give the Blue Jackets a 2-0 lead roughly 7 minutes into the period.  But, goals by Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Brady Skjei got the Canes even and Andrei took a pass from Sebastian Aho for the game-winner with 1:55 left in regulatiion.  Pyotr Kochetkov won his 3rd game of the season, stopping 21 of 23 Columbus shots.
