Like Florida, Carolina also managed to remain undefeated. On home ice, the Hurricanes won a landslide victory over Chicago (6: 3), which suffered their 8th defeat in 8 games. At the same time, the hosts won back twice during the first period.
The main hero of the match was Carolina defender Anthony Diangelo, who scored the first hat-trick of Gordie Howe in his career. In the first period, the American closed the pass of Vincent Trocek, in the second – once assisted Sebastian Aho and Andrei Svechnikov, in the third – he fought with Chicago forward Rhys Johnson.
Svechnikov's goal turned out to be rather curious. With the score 5: 2 in the middle of the second period, the Russian tried to make a pass to the penny from the corner of the court, but hit the foot of the Blackhawks defender Jake McCabe, and the puck was cut into the goal. Svechnikov, along with Aho, extended their scoring streak to 7 games from the start of the season.
