The Hurricanes continue their four-game homestand with a visit from the Boston Bruins on Thursday night, as this group looks to become the first team in Carolina franchise history to start a season 6-0-0.
The last time these two teams met was in the Toronto playoff bubble last year, when the Bruins dispatched the Canes in five games. The Canes’ last regular-season game against the Bruins came on Dec. 3, 2019, a 2-0 loss in Boston.
The Canes’ two biggest stars up front, Sebastian Aho and Andrei Svechnikov, enter tonight’s game with at least a point in every game this season after scoring against the Maple Leafs Monday.
