<p>RALEIGH, N.C. — Jordan Staal scored twice, and the Carolina Hurricanes rallied with four goals in the third period to beat the Florida Panthers 5-2 on Tuesday night.</p>
<p>Vincent Trocheck scored a power-play goal against his former team and assisted on Dougie Hamilton’s tying goal early in the third, also on the power play. Jesper Fast had a late goal for Carolina, and Sebastian Aho had three assists.</p>
<p>Aleksander Barkov scored both goals for the Panthers, whose six-game winning streak — the longest active run in the league — was snapped. The Panthers had been 18-0-1 when leading after two periods.</p>
<p>Florida was ahead 2-1 heading into the third in this one, but Hamilton tied it 45 seconds into the period.</p>
<p>Staal put the Hurricanes ahead with 11:08 remaining when the puck trickled past Florida goalie Sergie Bobrovsky, then added an empty-netter with 1:40 to play. Fast’s empty-netter completed the scoring.</p>
<p>The Hurricanes won for the first time this season when trailing after two periods, improving to 1-4-0 in those games.</p>
<p>Petr Mrazek, in his second game back after a thumb injury that sidelined him for more than two months, made 34 saves for Carolina. Bobrovsky stopped 31 shots.</p>
<p>DON’T LET THEM FORGET</p>
<p>Trocheck has five goals in five games against his former team this season. The center was acquired by the Hurricanes in a February 2020 trade.</p>
<p>ON THE MARK </p>
<p>Barkov has scored three goals since returning to the lineup for three games following an injury. He has eight goals in his last nine games.</p>
<p>UP NEXT</p>
<p>The teams meet again Thursday night in Raleigh.</p>
