The NHL roundup …
PITTSBURGH ó Sidney Crosby and Ruslan Fedotenko scored 32 seconds apart during Pittsburghís four-goal third period and the Penguins overcame Carolina rookie Brandon Sutterís first NHL goal to rally for a 4-1 victory over the Hurricanes on Thursday night.
Sutter gave one of hockeyís most famous families another milestone, scoring off a Pittsburgh giveaway to put Carolina up 1-0 in the first ó a lead that held up for nearly 21/2 periods. Sutter, a 2007 first-round draft pick and the son of New Jersey Devils coach Brent Sutter, is the ninth member of the Sutter family to play in the NHL.
The 19-year-old Sutter grabbed the puck after Penguins defenseman Brooks Orpik whiffed on a pass and, skating in from the blue line, beat Marc-Andre Fleury on a backhander at 13:07 of the first to score unassisted.
Carolina backup goalie Michael Leighton, starting again for Cam Ward after beating Anaheim 3-1 on Sunday, made the lead stand up until the Penguins ó known for their scoring flurries ó needed only two shifts to turn a one-goal deficit into a one-goal lead.

ST. PAUL, Minn. ó Derek Roy scored 44 seconds into overtime and Buffalo rallied from a late two-goal deficit to beat Minnesota.
