Carolina Hurricanes Beat Bruins 8-2 on Halloween

The Carolina Hurricanes dominated the Boston Bruins 8-2 in their first home game in over two weeks, marking their fifth consecutive victory. Jack Roslovic and Andrei Svechnikov each scored twice, while Martin Necas contributed a goal and three assists, leading a potent power play that netted three goals. After an initial equalizer by Brad Marchand, the Hurricanes exploded for three goals in just 52 seconds, establishing a commanding 4-1 lead by the end of the first period. Boston struggled offensively, managing only 15 shots throughout the game and briefly cutting the deficit to two goals early in the second before Carolina regained control. The Hurricanes' penalty kill was crucial, overcoming a 5-on-3 disadvantage and preventing significant damage. The Bruins' recent slide continues, now with a record of 1-4-1 in their last six games.
