The Carolina Hurricanes clinched another playoff berth and they hardly even noticed.
Frederik Andersen made 24 saves, Sebastian Aho and Seth Jarvis each had a goal and two assists, and the Hurricanes posted a 4-0 win over the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday night.
“It’s kind of almost unfortunate that it gets overlooked a little because where we sit,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said of securing a postseason spot.
“You forget how hard that is to accomplish, and to do it with however many games left.
I didn’t even think about it because it has been a foregone conclusion.”
Aho and Jarvis scored 57 seconds apart in Carolina’s four-goal second period, with Martin Necas and Brady Skjei adding the other goals.
All four goals came in a 12-minute span. Jake Guentzel had two assists.
“We’ve done a good job cementing ourselves as a top team in this league,” Jarvis said.
