The Canes blitzed Boston with multiple multi-goal flurries. The Carolina Hurricanes had both tricks and treats in their 8-2 win over the Boston Bruins on Halloween night at Lenovo Center. It was virtually a shooting gallery for the Hurricanes who seemed to just be toying with the Bruins all night long. The Canes outshot the Bruins 37-15 and outchanced them at 5v5 48-23. "Obviously we need to save some goals for the next game, but yeah, the mentality [is to just keep shooting], to be honest," said Andrei Svechnikov. "That's our game. We love to shoot the puck and put the puck in the net." Special teams were big for the Hurricanes as they went 3-for-5 on the man advantage and allowed just a single power play goal against as the Bruins had a 5-on-3. It wasn't even the only 5-on-3 that Boston had gotten as they wound up with back-to-back chances with the two-man advantage, but the only thing that beat Pyotr Kochetkov and the PKers was a centering feed that deflected off of Jaccob Slavin's skate. "It could have changed the whole complexion if they get another one there, so that was huge," said Canes coach Rod Brind'Amour on the penalty kill. "They got one on the 5-on-3 but then we were able to kill the next one. That was probably the game right there in those three, four, five minutes that we were able to get through it at least not down." In total, the Canes had six different goal scorers on the night and 12 skaters had at least one point. Jack Roslovic scored twice and so too did Andrei Svechnikov. Dmitry Orlov thought he had scored in his 800th career game, but it ended up just being the primary assist as Jackson Blake tipped it for his third career goal and Jordan Martinook registered his 200th career point. Sean Walker scored his first as a Hurricane, Jesperi Kotkaniemi scored his first of the season and Martin Necas scored his fifth of the season on what was a four-point night for the Czech winger.

"You're gaining confidence there. We're all good players and we're trying to make plays and stuff happens." * undefined "I think it's just the style of play," Roslovic said when asked what's been working so well for him in Carolina. "Like I've said from the beginning, it fits me a little bit so I enjoy playing in the system and I enjoy being at the rink every day. The guys are a special group and it's been easy, fun and we're just going to keep on grinding." * undefined * undefined It's now five wins in a row for the Hurricanes, the longest active streak in the league, and they'll look to make it six when they host the Washington Capitals on Sunday.
