The Carolina Hurricanes continued their winning ways with a dominant 8-2 win over the Boston Bruins on Thursday night at the Lenovo Center.

The Canes now have a record of 7-2, with five straight wins.

Carolina jumped out to a 4-1 lead in the opening period, even though they had to kill two partial 5-on-3 opportunities for the visitors.

Jack Roslovic opened the scoring 6:28 into the game, but the Bruins tied things up during one of their two-man advantages when the puck went through goalie Pytor Kochetkov after bouncing off the leg of Carolina defenseman Jaccob Slavin.

After that it was almost all Carolina.

Svechnikov, Blake and Necas added the scoring in the first inning, with those three goals coming in 91 seconds.

Blake’s goal came from Dmitry Orlov, who was playing in his 800th career NHL game.

After Boston got a goal back to start the second, the Canes got back to work.

Svechnikov and Roslovic each scored again, before Sean Walker and Jesperi Kotkaniemi scored their first goals of the season.

The next game for the Canes is a home game against the Capitals on Sunday night.

Game Notes:

• Officially, Carolina went 3-5 on the power play. Their kills were also excellent.
• The Canes outscored the Bruins 37-15 for the game. Roslovic led with six.
• The Bruins defeated the Canes 32-14, but Carolina weathered the physicality well.
