Hurricanes 5, Avalanche 3

The Carolina Hurricanes got back to their game and defeated the Colorado Avalanche, 5-3 on Thursday night at the Lenovo Center.

Andrei Svechnikov had a career best four point night, (1G 3A), Martin Necas had a goal and an assist, and Sebastian Aho had two assists to lead the home team.

The Canes did allow the Avs to break in behind the defense a few times but more often than not, Pyotr Kochetkov was up to the task.

The goalie allowed three goals on 19 shots.

Carolina outshot the visitors 35-19.

Eric Robinson tipped in a Burns shot to even the score at one in the opening period.
