Carolina lost 5-1 in Nashville. But, on the bright side, Antti Raanta and Pyotr Kochetkov each played well. Raanta made 21 saves and was very good in spite of allowing 5 goals in 2 periods. Kochetkov was spectacular in comfortably handling 13, 3rd period shots to keep his sheet clean. Ryan Suzuki had Carolina's lone goal and 18-year old Felix Unger-Sorum had that primary assist, but each left the game with an injury and did not return. Hopefully neither is a serious matter. The Hurricanes will close out the preseason Friday night at PNC Arena against the Predators. The Canes are scheduled to ice a lineup that is far more representative of the opening night group.
