RALEIGH — The Hurricanes celebrated its 2005-06 Stanley Cup on Tuesday, and the current team’s performance against the visiting Blue Jackets had glimmers of the team that captured the heart of the Triangle 20 years ago: an overachieving rookie goalie, a “Secret Weapon” scoring a key goal, a power forward tearing through the offensive zone and a young sniper emerging as one of the NHL’s stars.

Brandon Bussi won again, Jordan Staal scored on the power play for the second consecutive game, Andrei Svechnikov bulled his way to a pair of points and Seth Jarvis scored his 17th goal of the season as Carolina erased an early deficit and beat Columbus 4-1 at Lenovo Center.

“You see the highlights up there, and it makes you want to do that one day,” Bussi said of watching the pregame video celebrating the championship team. “You know, we like our locker room a lot. We have high aspirations.”

Bussi was mostly an afterthought when he was placed on waivers by the Panthers before the start of the regular season, but he’s now improved to 9-1-0 to start his NHL career and — like Cam Ward two decades ago — emerged as the Hurricanes’ top option in net.

The 27-year-old goalie made 23 saves, including 7 of 8 high-danger chances, as he continued to make big saves at key moments for his new team.

“I think that’s what goaltending’s all about,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said. “You’re supposed to make the ones you’re supposed to make, make a couple that you’re not supposed to make. But when you make them is, I think, real important.”

After Dmitri Voronkov scored a power play goal at 12:39 of the first, the Hurricanes knotted the game just before the midway point of regulation.

Svechnikov won a puck battle in the corner, circled the Columbus net and set up Jarvis for a worm-burner that skittered past Jet Greaves (27 saves) for his 17th goal of the year and a 1-1 score at 9:42 of the second period.

“I knew he was going to find me, and it’s just a matter of getting the puck on net,” Jarvis said of Svechnikov.

Carolina then took the lead for good in the third period when rookie defenseman Joel Nystrom made a solid play in the neutral zone to create a 2-on-1. Taylor Hall, who had kept play alive by winning an icing race just before, passed across to Eric Robinson, and his shot rattled off the posts and in for his sixth goal with just over 12 minutes left.

“It’s a good play by (Nystrom) standing up,” Robinson said. “Our D are so good at it every night, getting pucks up quick, and that’s how many me and (Hall) want to play — play quick. (Hall) makes a nice play.”

The Hurricanes then got an insurance goal thanks to the power play. Svechnikov got to the middle of the ice and shot, and Staal redirected the shot in at 13:38 for his ninth goal of the season. It marked the second time in Staal’s career (Feb. 13 and Feb. 15, 2021) that he had power play goals in consecutive games.

“Obviously he doesn’t get the goal, but he’s the reason we got it,” Brind’Amour said of Svechnikov. “He makes a great read. We talk about rotation, and then he rips it. You’re not looking for another pass. So that’s obviously the big goal in the game.”

A shorthanded empty-net goal by Jordan Martinook iced it, and the Hurricanes closed out the three-day celebration of the 2006 team with a win.

“That was a special night, obviously, with all the guys back,” Brind’Amour said, “and I thought our guys performed really well.”
