Sebastian Aho knocked down no less than four assists as Carolina beat Montreal 5–3.
Aho was organizing his team’s first two (1–0 and 2–0) and last two goals (4–3 and 5–3). He was responsible for the hits that turned the game around in Carolina Andrei Svetshnikovwho got to celebrate the hat trick.
Aho is in great shape, because in the previous match against Nashville, the score was just as impressive (1+3). Two consecutive four-point nights is a rarity that has been reached recently in the NHL Jeremy Roenick 24 years ago. Aho is the first in his company to be able to do this.
In the Finns’ point exchange, the man from Oulu is second with 39 points Mikko Rantanen (44) and Alexander Barkov (35) in between.
Among the Carolina players, the match was perhaps the most emotional Antti to Raanna, who returned between the posts after being placed on the waivers list and farmed. The victory came with 18 saves.
