RALEIGH N.C. — Martin Necas scored again, yet again, an event which has gone from man-bites-dog to dog-bites-man in a frighteningly short amount of time as he’s emerged as the Carolina Hurricanes’ leading scorer to open the season.
Still, even if there may be a new sheriff in town, the old sheriff isn’t quite ready to give up the badge.
As good as Necas has been, Sebastian Aho is right there with him, statistically and analytically. On the heels of his dipsy-doodle shootout winner Thursday night in Tampa that left Andrei Vasilevskiy flummoxed, the Hurricanes and Aho picked up where they left off against the Buffalo Sabres on Friday.
