VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 17 (UPI) -- Mason Raymond scored two goals and assisted on a third Sunday, helping the Vancouver Canucks handle Carolina 5-1.
Raymond's power-play tally in the first period staked the Canucks to a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes and his second goal early in the final stanza put Vancouver up 4-1.
Andrew Alberts, Mikael Samuelsson (two assists) and Ryan Kesler added goals in the one-sided victory, in which the Canucks broke out of a slump that saw them score only seven goals in their previous four games.
Cory Schneider was solid in net, stopping 32-of-33 Carolina shots.
Patrick O'Sullivan tallied the Hurricanes' only goal. Cam Ward allowed five goals on 28 shots faced in the setback, which dropped Carolina to 1-6-2 in its last nine games at Vancouver.
