Andrei Svechnikov Posts Career-High Four Points Versus Avalanche
Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov stole the show against Colorado on Thursday, leading all skaters with a career-high four points in a 5-3 win. Svechnikov racked up three assists, two on the power play, before capping off his career night with an empty-net goal. The big performance ended a four-game point drought for Svechnikov. The Russian forward hasn't been a regular on the score sheet in recent games, but he won't have many complaints about the season overall. In 26 appearances, Svechnikov has contributed nine goals and 13 assists. Half of his 22 points have come with the man advantage. Svechnikov's prowess on the power play might help him start a point streak in the next matchup against the Islanders, who have the league's worst penalty kill
Andrei Svechnikov Notches Two Points In Game 3 Loss
Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov factored in both goals in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers. He helped Jake Guentzel get the scoring started with his sixth assist of the 2024 playoffs and sent the game past regulation with only 1:36 left to play in the third period, scoring his second postseason goal. The Russian forward posted his third multi-point performance of this year's playoffs. He's averaging a point per game through eight contests, and the Hurricanes will need another big effort from Svechnikov in Saturday's Game 4 as the team faces early elimination.
Andrei Svechnikov Sends Out Two Assists In Monday's Win

A poor start put Carolina in a 3-0 hole, but the team found a way to turn the game on its head and grabbed a 2-0 series lead with a 5-3 victory. Svechnikov came up with his first assist when Sebastian Aho tied the game at the 17:45 mark in the third period, and he collected his second helper on Jake Guentzel's empty-net goal. These are Svechnikov's first points of the series. He's sitting on the top line with Aho and Guentzel and should do a lot more damage in the 2024 playoffs.

Through 29 appearances, he's contributed 11 goals and 19 assists, firing off 71 shots on goal.

Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov will miss Sunday's contest against Minnesota with an upper-body injury. Michael Bunting will replace him on the top line. Svechnikov exits the lineup following an impressive spell that saw him register seven multi-point efforts across 11 games. He's amassed 30 points (11 goals, 19 assists) in 29 games for the season overall. Bunting also enjoyed a multi-point outing last time out against Detroit, but he's struggled for consistency in recent weeks. However, an opportunity to skate with Carolina's top scorer, Sebastian Aho, puts him in a great position to regain momentum.

Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov (upper body) will miss a third consecutive game on Tuesday versus Ottawa and isn't expected to return anytime soon. Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour said on Tuesday that Svechnikov will be out for at least "a while." The comments came after Svechnikov underwent an MRI on Monday.

Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov (upper body) was a late scratch on Thursday. Svechnikov took warmups but did not end up playing in the game, with Brendan Lemieux entering the lineup. The 23-year-old has been ravaged by injuries and illnesses this season, playing only 16 of the team's 26 games so far while missing time due to a knee injury, an illness, and now this upper-body injury. Hopefully he can get healthy, as he can be a very effective player when all systems are a go. His next chance to suit up will be Saturday against Vancouver.

The Russian forward has been on a good scoring run lately, amassing five points (one goal, four assists) in four games. He's totaled nine points (one goal, eight assists) for the entire campaign with 12 appearances.
Andrei Svechnikov Doesn't Play Tuesday Due To Illness
Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov (illness) missed Tuesday's contest against the Philadelphia Flyers. Svechnikov appears to have caught the bug that is spreading around the league and was out of action last night. Brendan Lemieux replaced him in the lineup. Svechnikov has nine points (one goal, eight assists) in 12 games this season. He has mostly played on the second line and first powerplay unit, but has moved up and down the lineup as is the norm with Rod Brind'Amour coaching. His peripherals and decent point totals make him a must-start in fantasy when he is healthy.
Carolina Hurricanes forward Andrei Svechnikov (knee) is set to make his season debut Friday against the San Jose Sharks. Svechnikov missed the Hurricanes' first eight games and the end of last season after suffering a knee injury that required surgery. While the 23-year-old may be eased into the lineup, he should start on the first powerplay unit and will see most of his time in the top six before long. Svech put up 55 points in 64 games before his injury last season and should surpass those numbers barring injury, making him a must-start fantasy option.
Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov (knee) was a full participant in Monday's practice. The 23-year-old has missed the start of the season while recovering from an ACL tear, but this is a major step on his part towards returning to action. However, it will still take some more time until Svechnikov is ready for his season debut, and he has already been ruled out for Tuesday's clash with the Lightning. Svechnikov was Carolina's fourth-best scorer last term with 55 points (23 goals, 32 assists) in 63 games, and he also adds muscle to the lineup, having averaged close to two hits per game for his career.
Carolina Hurricanes forward Andrei Svechnikov (knee) is set to sit out the team's season opener and is unlikely to join the Hurricanes on their upcoming six-game road trip. The timeline for Svechnikov's return remains uncertain, but it's increasingly likely that he will be sidelined for at least the first six games. Last season, Svechnikov recorded 23 goals and 32 assists in 64 games before undergoing season-ending knee surgery. As a result of his absence, Teuvo Teravainen will probably shift to the left-wing position on the second line.
Andrei Svechnikov Expected To Be Ready For Start Of Season
Carolina Hurricanes right wing Andrei Svechnikov (knee) is expected to be ready for the start of the 2023-24 NHL campaign. The 23-year-old had knee surgery in March and was given a six-month timeline for recovery. According to Hurricanes general manager Don Waddell, Svechnikov has been recovering well and might even be ahead of schedule. "He wants to be playing today, but we'll be cautious, obviously," Waddell added. "October is important, but as the season goes on, it becomes even more important. I fully expect him to be ready when the season starts." Before sustaining an ACL tear in his right knee, Svechnikov put up 55 points (23 goals, 32 assists) in 64 games with the Hurricanes last season. Five years into his NHL career, the Russia native already boasts over 100 goals and has bagged 264 points in 347 outings with 973 shots on goal and 682 hits.
Andrei Svechnikov Undergoing Season-Ending Knee Surgery

The Russian talent tore his right ACL in Saturday's game against the Golden Knights and faces a lengthy recovery period.

The 22-year-old has recorded 23 goals, 32 assists and 140 hits in 64 games, so his absence will be felt in many ways. New addition Jesse Puljujarvi took Svechnikov's spot on the first line Sunday against New Jersey and will hope to hang on to it for as long as he can.
Andrei Svechnikov Leads The Charge Versus St. Louis
Carolina Hurricanes left wing Andrei Svechnikov scored twice and had an assist as the team beat the Blues 4-1 Tuesday. He potted the first two goals of the game inside the opening eight minutes and collected an assist on Sebastian Aho's 25th marker of the season. This was a great night all around for Carolina's first line, as Aho had two points in total and Seth Jarvis finished with a goal and two assists. Svechnikov celebrated his second three-point outing in three games. It's been a fairly inconsistent campaign for the Russian winger, but he continues to make up for it with multi-point outings. Svechnikov has gone scoreless in 25 of his 56 appearances but has still managed a very respectable 21 goals and 28 assists.
Carolina Hurricanes left wing Andrei Svechnikov contributed two assists as the team produced a big comeback victory on Tuesday against the Kings. He set up Brent Burns for the opening goal in the first period, but the Kings struck back with four consecutive tallies and Carolina fell into a 4-1 hole. The team managed to climb out of it with a three-goal third period, and Svechnikov had his second assist when Teuvo Teravainen tied the game on the power play. That's now three multi-point games in six appearances for the Russian winger, but sadly he hasn't added anything to his tally in the rest of the games. The inconsistency led to a pretty unproductive month, but Svechnikov remains a very valuable fantasy assess for his all-around ability. In 50 games this season, he has posted 19 goals and 41 points with 167 shots and 105 hits.
Carolina Hurricanes left wing Andrei Svechnikov posted his third career hat trick in Thursday's big 7-2 victory over Edmonton. He had a goal in each period and the third one marked his 100th career goal. Svechnikov got back on track in front of goal after scoring just once in his previous seven appearances. It was an awful spell, but the 22-year-old had an incredible start to the season and is actually the third-best goal-scorer in the league with 11 markers. Svechnikov has also delivered six assists in 17 games, adding 25 hits. His year in 2021-22 was already impressive, as Svechnikov notched 30 goals and 69 points in 78 games, but it looks like he is ready to crush these numbers in 2022-23.
