Sebastian Aho scored a goal for the fourth straight game and the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Boston Bruins 4-1 on Sunday in a matchup of the teams with the two best records in the NHL. Paul Stastny scored on a second-period power play, Seth Jarvis posted a goal in the third, and Jordan Staal added a short-handed empty-netter as the Hurricanes won their fifth game in a row and extended their points streak to eight games (7-0-1).
The Carolina Hurricanes have drawn from various sources on their latest winning streak, with nothing more impressive than Sebastian Aho's scoring burst and the contributions from a number of goalies. The Hurricanes' latest chance to unveil their winning formula will come Tuesday when they wrap upa three-game homestand against the visiting Los Angeles Kings in Raleigh, N.C. Aho has scored a goal in four consecutive games, racking up seven total goals during that stretch.
The Kings will visit the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night with the opportunity to head into the All-Star break as the Pacific Division’s leader. That matchup is one of the final five NHL games before the break begins Thursday, rolling into the All-Star weekend in Florida. With a victory, the Kings would leapfrog both the second-place Vegas Golden Knights and division-topping Seattle Kraken, neither of whom play again until the regular-season schedule resumes.
