Svechnikov drives Canes past Columbus, 4-1

Halfway through the game -- an eventual 4-1 win over Columbus -- the Hurricanes looked like an extension of what we saw on Sunday against the Sharks.  But, then Andrei Svechnikov won a battle for the puck in the corner and created a goal for Seth Jarvis.  The rest was a Carolina domination.  Svechnikov would also assist on the Canes power play goal, a net front deflection by Jordan Staal.  Taylor Hall and Eric Robinson combined on a goal that gave them the lead. And, Brondon Bussi stopped 23 shots for his 9th win in 10 career starts.  Now, Rod Brind'Amour has a decision to make about who starts on Thursday in Washington.
