The Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Boston Bruins 2-1 in a clash between the Eastern Conference's top two teams. Pavel Zacha gave Boston an early lead on a power play just 1:30 into the game before Jackson Blake tied it late in the first period. Sebastian Aho scored the game-winner midway through the third period to seal the victory for Carolina.
Goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov made 14 saves for Carolina, including several key stops during late penalties while Boston had an extra attacker. The Hurricanes earned the win despite missing Jordan Staal and losing Taylor Hall to an injury suffered during the morning skate, which head coach Rod Brind’Amour said would keep him out for a bit.
