Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Point streak reaches four games
Rotowire
Svechnikov recorded a goal, three shots and two hits in Friday's 2-0 win over the Canucks.
Svechnikov has scored a goal in two of his last three appearances and extended his point streak to a season-best four games. The lack of consistency has been an issue, though. The 24-year-old winger has cracked the scoresheet in five of six outings in January, tallying two goals and three assists in that stretch, but before that, he recorded just one point over a six-game span at the end of December.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: First 5-on-5 goal since October
Rotowire
Svechnikov scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Lightning.
It was a backhand flutterer from the top of the circles that Andrei Vasilevskiy whiffed on. Svechnikov has scuffled a bit this season -- this was his first goal in his last 10 games (three assists), and his first 5-on-5 goal since October. Gulp. Last season, Svechnikov delivered 19 goals and 52 points (144 shots) in 59 appearances. This year, he's on pace for 58 in 82 games. He's better than this, so something will give soon enough... we think.

Hurricanes' Andrei Svechnikov: Three-point effort against Boston
Rotowire
Svechnikov scored two power-play goals and added an even-strength assist in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Bruins.

He hasn't stayed healthy for anything close to a full campaign since 2021-22 when he delivered 30 goals and 69 points in 78 regular-season games, but if Svechnikov can stay on the ice in 2024-25, a career-best season should follow for the second overall pick in the 2018 Draft.
