Logan Stankoven and Sebastian Aho scored the first two goals for Carolina. Frederik Andersen made 37 saves for the win.

Drake Batherson and Dylan Cozens had Ottawa's goals, with Jake Sanderson assisting on both tallies. Goalie Linus Ullmark seemed dialed in to steal a victory for Ottawa, making 43 saves.
