The Carolina Hurricanes played a tight game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday night, but ended up losing in overtime, 3-2 at the PNC Center.

Jiri Tlusty was called for closing his hand on the puck and the Hurricanes faced a tough 4-on-3 disadvantage during the overtime period.  The Blue Jackets' Ryan Johansen scored during the powerplay for the win.

Jeff Skinner and Andrei Loktionov lit the lamp for the home team.

The Canes will next face the Sens on Monday night in Ottawa.
