<p>The Carolina Hurricanes gave up the first goal but scored the next five in a 5-2 win over the Minnesota Wild. Frederik Andersen was stellar for the second straight start and Carolina once again got tons of offensive production from the blue line in the win. But, all excitement was lost when Max Pacioretty went down with a non-contact injury to his lower right leg, the same one that has his surgically repaired achilles. Pacioretty, the pure goal-scorer this team has craved has only played in 5 games for the Canes this year after being acquired from Vegas in the summer. The Hurricanes got goals from Brent Burns, Brady Skjei and Teuvo Teravainen in the 2nd period, and then Jalen Chatfield and Martin Necas in the 3rd. For Skjei, his power play goal gave him 10 on the season -- a career high. Teravainen's goal came shorthanded and snapped an 8-game goal drought. The Hurricanes will next be on the ice on Saturday on Long Island against the Islanders.</p>
