Seth Jarvis scored 1:28 into overtime to keep Carolina goalie Frederik Andersen unbeaten since returning to action in the Hurricanes' 3-2 victory over visiting Philadelphia on Thursday night.
Jarvis posted his 26th goal to give Carolina its fifth consecutive victory.
Andersen made 30 saves to improve to 5-0-0 following a long absence. Jordan Martinook and Jalen Chatfield scored in the second period for the Hurricanes.

oilers 8, sabres 3 >> Zach Hyman scored his 47th and 48th goals, the second in Edmonton's five-goal third period, and the host Oilers overcame a two-goal deficit to rout Buffalo.
The Oilers improved to 42-21-4 with their second straight victory. They are 9-1-2 in their last 12. RANGERS 5, BRUINS 2 >> Artemi Panarin was credited with three goals — the second when Bruins forward Jake DeBrusk knocked the puck into the Boston net in the final minute of the second period — and New York went on to win at Boston. The Rangers' third victory over Boston in as many tries this season closed the Metropolitan Division leaders within one point of the defending Presidents' Trophy winners for the best record in the NHL.
RED WINGS 6, ISLANDERS 3 >> Dylan Larkin had two goals after an eight-game absence, Andrew Copp also scored twice to break a 20-game drought and Detroit beat slumping New York.

DEVILS 4, JETS 1 >> Jack Hughes scored two of the Devils' three power-play goals, brother Luke Hughes had a career-best three assists and host New Jersey stunned red-hot Winnipeg in one of its best performances in a disappointing season. Nico Hischier scored the go-ahead goal on the power play and added two assists.
PREDATORS 3, PANTHERS 0 >> Filip Forsberg scored twice and Nashville extended its franchise-record point streak to 16 games with a win at Florida. With the win, Nashville eclipsed its 15-game point streak (140-1) set in 2017-18 spanning from Feb. 17 to March 19 while surging into the Western Conference's top wildcard spot in the process.
BLUES 5, SENATORS 2 >> Joel Hofer made 37 saves, Jake Neighbours scored twice and St. Louis won at Ottawa for its fifth victory in six games as the Blues fight for the second and final Western Conference wildcard spot.
