Carolina Hurricanes: Morning After Raanta returns with a shutout

Antti Raanta made 14 saves in his first appearance in three and a half weeks as the Hurricanes shut out the Canadiens, 3-0, at the Bell Centre in Montreal.  Brady Skjei, Paul Stastny and Sebastian Aho each scored as the Canes snapped a 3-game losing streak.  For Skjei, his 17th goal of the season set a franchise record for most team goals in a season from the blue line.  Carolina now has 52 goals from defensemen this year with 7 games left to play.  Aho's 34th came on the power play and closed out the scoring.  The Hurricanes were 3 for 3 on the penalty kill.  They maintain a 1-point lead on the New Jersey Devils heading into Sunday's home game with the New York Islanders.
