William Foegele is all smiles after scoring 17 seconds into the first period on Thursday night in Raleigh, North Carolina during game 5 of their series against the Washington Capitals<\/p><\/div>\n

The Carolina Hurricanes may have lost forward Jordan Martinook, but took revenge by winning another game, and with a long list of forwards being called up due to key player injuries, the Hurricanes seem intent on not letting it impact progress.<\/p>\n

Carolina welcomed the Stanley Cup defending champions on Thursday night with the series tied 2-1, but with the final seconds ticking away, it was a goal by Carolina\u2019s Teuvo Teravainen scoring with less than 30 seconds remaining that saw the Carolina Hurricanes<\/a> tying the series..<\/p>\n

William Foegele scored the opening goal seventeen seconds into the first period, and goalie Petr Mrazek stopped 30 shots, all on a night that saw Jordan Martinook exiting after suffering an injury to his knee after slamming into the boards as a result of trying to execute a hit on Dmitry Orlov. Commenting on the series, Justin Williams, captain of the Hurricanes said,
\n“All we’ve done is hold serve.”<\/p>\n

Washington\u2019s Alex Ovechkin scored its only goal during a power play, and goaltender Braden Holtby stopped 22 shots. It was the first time that Washington has lost back-to-back games since January. The Capitals saw star forward T.J. Oshie leave the game late in the third after a hard hit late in the final period by William Foegele. That saw Foegele earning a trip to the box after Oshie left the ice in pain.<\/p>\n

Todd Reirden, coach for the Washington Capitals<\/a>, was not pleased with the hit and commented that Oshie was defenceless at the time of the hit adding,<\/p>\n

“It was a defenceless player that was quite a distance from the boards. It’s an extremely dangerous play, and he will not be with our team for a while.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
