<p>The Carolina Hurrricanes got the 4th overtime game winning goal of the season and beat the Ottawa Senators, 3-2, at PNC Arena Tuesday night. The win was Carolina's 3rd in a row and helped them maintain their 3-point lead over the New Jersey Devils in the Metropolitan Division. Jersey defeated Pittsburgh at home on Tuesday as well. After goals from Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Brady Skjei staked the Canes to a 2-0 lead after the first period the Senators really assumed control of the game. Claude Giroux scored midway through the 2nd period to halve the lead and Brady Tkachuk followed in the 3rd with a power play goal and Carolina was just trying to survive into overtime. And, in the OT is where Necas does his best work. His 4 OT GWG's are best in the NHL. Antti Raanta made 26 saves for the win and is now 15-0-2 in his last 19 appearances. He's not lost in regulation since November 12 at Colorado. The Canes next play Thursday night in Nashville.</p>
