Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Posts trio of points Thursday
Rotowire
Svechnikov scored two goals on four shots, recorded an assist, served two PIM and dished out two hits in Thursday's 5-4 win over Utah.
Svechnikov tallied an unassisted goal early in the first period before later picking up a power-play helper late in the second. With nearly all hope lost of pulling off a comeback victory, his power-play twine finder sparked a three-goal outbreak to help Carolina steal the win with less than two minutes remaining in the contest. Overall, the 25-year-old winger is up to 20 goals, 26 assists, 145 shots on net and 92 hits across 53 games this season. The budding star has completely bounced back after last year and sits just two points shy of matching the 48 he posted in 72 regular-season games in 2024-25. He is above the necessary pace to reach 70 points for the first time in his career while maintaining strong category coverage, which places him in a fantasy territory he hasn't sniffed since his career-best year during the 2021-22 campaign.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Collects three points in loss
Rotowire
Svechnikov scored a goal on five shots and added two assists in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Canadiens.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Five-game, nine-point streak
Rotowire
Svechnikov scored a goal and added two assists in a 5-2 win over the Red Wings on Saturday.
Svechnikov was forechecking and picked the pocket of Dylan Larkin, which let the sniper break in alone on John Gibson and snap a shot high blocker. The points extended Svechnikov's scoring streak to five games and nine points (three goals, six assists; 14 shots). Svechnikov is also on a three-game goal streak, but he also picked up another minor penalty, this time for roughing. That gives him 12 PIM in his last 10 games. Discipline is the name of the game in Carolina, but he's really put up some solid offense while playing with an edge.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Provides pair of helpers

Svechnikov has amassed five helpers over eight games since he last scored a goal against Winnipeg on Nov. 21.

He's up to 17 points (six on the power play), 84 shots on net, 39 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 29 appearances.
