Tkachuk helps Senators hold off Hurricanes late rally

Brady Tkachuk hadn't scored in 15 games, but the Ottawa Senators captain made up for lost time scoring twice in a 4-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes Tuesday night.

Andrei Svechnikov, Brendan Smith and Vincent Trocheck scored for the Hurricanes (31-10-3), while Antti Raanta faced 31 shots.

Trailing 4-0 to start the third the Hurricanes rallied back to make it a one-goal game, but couldn't find the equalizer.

Svechnikov got things started early in the period as he dug out a loose puck in front for his 17th of the season.
