CHICAGO (AP) — Goals by Andrei Svechnikov, Jaccob Slavin, Phillip Di Giuseppe and Calvin de Haan gave Carolina a four-goal lead early in the second period and the Hurricanes held on for a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night that spoiled the NHL coaching debut of Jeremy Colliton.

"You've got to do your job no matter what," Aho said, "so just tried to focus on the whole game and just play the best game that you can."
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A coaches' challenge wiped away the Carolina Hurricanes' first go-ahead goal. There was no doubting the second one.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Hurricanes were a fraction of a second from opening their season with a victory in regulation. As tough as shootouts have been for this team over the years, winning one of those was an even more satisfying way to start.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — As Jeff Skinner goes, often times so go the Carolina Hurricanes.
