Aho earned an assist and a plus-4 rating in Friday's 5-2 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Aho tied a career high in assists (53) with the latest apple, and the playoff-bound Hurricanes, winners of four straight contests, are looking very sharp with a pair of games remaining in the regular season. This has been Aho's best NHL campaign, as the prolific eighth-year forward is sporting 88 points -- including 32 power-play points and a whopping 10 game-winning goals -- through 77 contests. The Finn will be a popular target in playoff pools since he's playing so well, plus this will mark Aho's sixth straight postseason showing as the Hurricanes have been quite competitive over that span. He has 23 goals and 35 assists through 63 postseason games.

Aho had a goal and two assists in a 4-0 win over Detroit on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The goal was Aho's 32nd of the season and came on a redirection at the left post early in the second period. The goal was his 250th in the NHL, and his 83 points overall tie his career mark set in 2018-19. Aho is one of the more consistent stars in the NHL, potting 29 or more goals in six of his last seven seasons. His commitment to two-way team play has kept him from exploding offensively, which likely the only reason he's a top-13 scorer instead of a someone consistently flirting with the top-five. Still, Aho is an excellent fantasy producer, and a leader on the ice.
