Carolina Hurricanes; Morning After a second period pounding in New Jersey

Martin Necas scored twice, netting both the tying goal and the eventual game-winner, as Carolina bounced back from Sunday's 8-4 loss AND an early 1-0 deficit in a 6-1 win over the Devils.  The Hurricanes now lead the best-of-7 series 3 games to 1 with Game 5 coming Thursday in Raleigh.  Jack Hughes scored early in the 1st period to give the Devils an early lead.  And that lead held up until 17:40 of the frame when Martin Necas' first of the game leveled the score.  Necas would score before the 8-minute mark of the 2nd to tie give the Hurricanes a 2-1 lead and from that point the floodgates opened.  Brett Pesce, Jesper Fast and Brent Burns all scored, with the 5 goals coming in a 5:20 span of the period.  And, when Jordan Martinook ripped one off the crossbar and in with 24 seconds left in the 2nd the Canes had a 6-1 lead.  Frederik Andersen made 21 saves in the win, his 4th so far in the postseason.
