Sutter scores in OT as Canucks come back from 3 goals down to beat Hurricanes
VANCOUVER — The Vancouver Canucks didn’t have much success when trailing after two periods last season.
In 2016-17, they’re already 2 for 2.
Brandon Sutter scored 32 seconds into overtime Sunday as the Canucks came from three goals down, including a 3-1 deficit after 40 minutes, to defeat the Carolina Hurricanes 4-3.
Sutter, who buried the only shootout goal in Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Calgary, grabbed the puck in his own zone and got a step on a Carolina defender before beating Eddie Lack on a quick shot for his first of the season over the blocker on a 2-on-1 rush for the Canucks’ second straight comeback win.
