Aho scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Aho had gone seven games without a goal, though he earned six assists in that span to stay productive. The 27-year-old center is up to four goals, 15 points, 45 shots on net, 11 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 16 contests. Aho has exceeded a point-per-game pace in three of the last four seasons, so he could still improve a bit on offense, particularly since he's shooting just 8.9 percent on the year.

Aho notched an assist and went minus-2 in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Aho's now gone five games without a goal, though he's offset that by adding five assists and 13 shots on net. The 27-year-old is up to three goals, 10 helpers, 40 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-1 rating over 13 contests this season. Aho is shooting just 7.5 percent in 2024-25, and since he hasn't been under 16 percent in the last five years, there's plenty of reason to be optimistic he'll break through eventually.

Aho recorded two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Aho has gone four games without a goal, but he has four assists in that span. He's also six games removed from his last power-play point. The 27-year-old remains the Hurricanes' top-line center with three goals, nine assists, 40 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 12 contests. Aho has been steady but not flashy as the leader of a strongly balanced forward group.

Aho scored the game-winning goal in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Aho came through when the Hurricanes needed him the most, as the star playmaker notched the game-winning goal less than a minute into overtime following setups from Shayne Gostisbehere and Martin Necas. Aho hasn't set the world on fire with his numbers this season, but he's been remarkably consistent, notching at least one point in six of his last seven contests.

Aho scored the game-winning goal and also added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Aho was the Hurricanes' hero Tuesday, as he scored the game-winning goal with only seven seconds left in overtime with a rocket from the right faceoff circle. He's now had multi-point performances in back-to-back games, and he's also cracked the scoresheet in four straight outings, racking up two goals and four assists in what has been a very productive stretch for the 27-year-old winger.

Aho delivered two assists, including one on the power play, in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Aho has just one goal through four outings this season despite attempting 10 shots, and while that's a disappointing outcome for the star forward, he's making up for that lack of goals in the assists department, where he has three over his last two appearances. Aho has scored at least 35 goals in each of the last three seasons, however, so he should bounce back sooner rather than later, especially since he holds a top-line role for the Hurricanes both at even strength and on the power play. He'll aim to extend his three-game point streak Tuesday against the Oilers.

Aho scored an empty-net goal on three shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Aho has a goal, five shots on net, two hits and two blocked shots over two appearances. The center was held off the scoresheet in the season opener versus the Lightning, but it's rare for Aho to go through extended droughts. The 27-year-old has exceeded 80 points in two of the last three years and has a decent chance of reaching that mark again as the Hurricanes' top forward in 2024-25.

Aho scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
Aho had the primary assist on Seth Jarvis' power-play marker early in the second period. Aho also had an even-strength tally in the middle frame, which was the final goal Carolina scored in the contest. In addition to recording two points, the Finnish center had two shots on net, one block and a minus-2 rating in 18:48 of ice time. After a career high in the regular season with 89 points, the 26-year-old forward finished the postseason with four goals, eight assists and a plus-1 rating in 11 outings.

Aho scored a goal and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
Aho snapped a five-game goal drought with his first-period tally, which gave the Hurricanes a 3-1 lead. The center has been much more involved in the second round with seven points over four contests. He's up to three goals, seven helpers, 26 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-4 rating through nine playoff outings.

Aho recorded an assist in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3 on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
He helped on Andrei Svechnikov's game-tying marker late in the third period, but Aho's efforts ultimately failed to prevent Carolina from falling behind 3-0 in the second-round series. Although the Hurricanes have come up short against the Rangers, Aho has excelled with six assists through three contests in the series. That gives him two goals and nine points across eight playoff outings this year after setting a career high of 89 points (36 goals) in 78 regular-season games.
