The last encounter of the two franchises was played on December 1st, 2022 and after the final horn the scoreboard was showing a 4-6 defeat for the St. Louis Blues. One of the reasons behind the Hurricanes’ triumph was the performance of Jordan Martinook. He was on the ice for 18:25 and ended the game with 3 goals. Pavel Buchnevich tried his best for the St. Louis Blues. He turned his only attempt on target into a goal for a 18:38 of playing time. Buchnevich also had a hand in one of the St. Louis Blues goals by laying an assist to his teammates. The Hurricanes’ triumph may also be attributed to the team’s netminder. Antti Raanta managed to stop 12 of the 15 shots, which was enough to seal the victory. The other side’s goalkeeper Jordan Binnington ended the night with a 0.882 save percentage. In the most recent five games Carolina Hurricanes are dominating as far as head-to-head balance is concerned, triumphing in 4 meetings, while losing the other 1.
