Carolina Hurricanes: Morning After Aho's second hat trick

Aho scores three times to run away from the Islanders, 5-2

Sebastian Aho broke open a 2-2 game with 3 consecutive goals as the Carolina Hurricanes skated past the New York Islanders, 5-2, at UBS Arena on Long Island. Aho's 15th goal came in transition, off a feed from Teuvo Teravainen, and put the Hurricanes ahead, 3-2, in the 2nd period. Aho's second was entirely his doing, stealing a puck deep in the Islanders zone and beating Ilya Sorokin past the blocker side. His third was a hard-working empty net slider and closed out the scoring. Jordan Staal had a goal and an assist in the win. The Hurricanes are off until Wednesday when they play in Dallas.
