Scoring quick and hat tricks: Canes, Jarvis ride dominant third period to victory over Habs

On the night that Cam Ward was enshrined in the Carolina Hurricanes Hall of Fame, the Canes put together a dominant offensive effort, smashing the Montreal Canadiens 6-2 Thursday night at PNC Arena.

While a lot of the attention was on Ward, Canes forward Seth Jarvis sort of stole the spotlight as he picked up his first career NHL hat trick.

It wasn’t pretty early for the Hurricanes as the Montreal Canadiens, fielding what’s essentially a 50% AHL roster, kept pace with them and eventually even struck first.

A misplay in the o-zone by Calvin de Haan ended with Michael Pezzetta getting in alone on Antti Raanta.
