  "account": "In a tough 5-3 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes, the New York Islanders fell short in the third period. William Carrier scored the go-ahead goal in the third, but the Islanders couldn't capitalize on their opportunities. The Hurricanes led early, scoring twice within the first three minutes. With a defensive miscue, Anthony Duclair and Jean-Gabriel Pageau over-skated a puck, allowing Stankoven to score. Svechnikov extended Carolina's lead in the first period. After a two-goal second period, Svechnikov once again found the back of the net, putting the Hurricanes ahead 3-2. The Islanders answered with two goals in the final five minutes of the third, including an empty-net goal by Jalen Chatfield in the final seconds. Brayden Schenn and Mitchell Chaffee also contributed for the Islanders. Semyon Varlamov made 34 saves for Carolina, while Brandon Bussi finished with 24 saves for New York. The Islanders signed veteran defenseman Ben Hutton to a one-year contract. Next up, the Hurricanes will host Chicago on Saturday, while the Islanders face New Jersey on Saturday.",
