NHL roundup: Jordan Staal completes Hurricanes' rally vs. Penguins

Jordan Staal's goal with 6:27 to play gave the Carolina Hurricanes a 3-2 comeback victory against the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday.

The outcome extended Carolina's point streak to 11 games. However, Pittsburgh's seven-game winning streak, which was the longest active mark in the NHL, came to a close.

Derek Stepan and Brady Skjei both had a goal and an assist for the Hurricanes, who have three one-goal victories to begin a four-game homestand. Staal also had an assist as Carolina won its fifth straight game. Goalie Pyotr Kochetkov made 23 saves as the rookie continued a stellar stretch of results.

Brock McGinn scored at the 5:03 mark of the third to give the Penguins a 2-1 lead before Skjei provided the equalizer and Staal put home the game-winner. Rickard Rickell, who was appearing in his 600th NHL game, also scored for Pittsburgh.

However, Minnesota nearly blew a 3-0 lead after Ottawa's Mark Kastelic bested Minnesota goalie Filip Gustavsson (26 saves) 4:58 into the third period, and Claude Giroux drove home a net-front puck, with Ottawa's goalie pulled, to make things interesting with 1:40 remaining in regulation.
