Coming off a three-game skid, and back-to-back, hard-fought overtime losses to Columbus, the Carolina Hurricanes got back in the win column and a measure of revenge in a 3-0 win over the Blue Jackets Monday night.
Other than a couple poor power plays in the first period, there wasn’t much to complain about in this one, as the Hurricanes pretty much dominated from start to finish, and outshot Columbus 28-19.
Brady Skjei scored his first as a Hurricane in the first period, Martin Necas scored in his 100th NHL game, Jesper Fast potted a goal and assist and Sebastian Aho chipped in two assists for the Hurricanes.
