Taylor Hall’s Double Lifts Hurricanes Past Canadiens 6-4

Taylor Hall scored twice as the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Montreal Canadiens 6-4 in a high-scoring NHL game in Montreal on Tuesday night.
Sebastian Aho had a goal and two assists, while Mark Jankowski and Eric Robinson each recorded a goal and an assist. The Hurricanes snapped a four-game regular-season losing streak against Montreal and won their second straight game of the young season. They outshot the Canadiens 34-20.
Zack Bolduc scored twice for Montreal, and Nick Suzuki added a goal and an assist. The Canadiens dropped their home opener to the team that eliminated them in last season’s Eastern Conference finals. Hall’s second goal came on a backhand with 7:39 remaining in regulation.
Carolina scored two goals in the first period, two in the second and two in the third. Brandon Bussi made 16 saves for the Hurricanes. The win keeps Carolina’s strong start to the season on track as they look to defend their Stanley Cup title.
