Aho is carrying a five game goal streak into the matchup with the Maple Leafs. After getting held scoreless through 16 games to start the season, few players are hotter across the league right now than Aho is.
The skill and creativity that Aho brings to the offense is really only matched by Skinner. And, despite not scoring a goal for a good chunk of time to start the season, he’s second on the team in points, only behind Teravainen.
Aho is also tied for fourth on the team in goals with Elias Lindholm and Brock McGinn, with five. He could easily eclipse the mark he posted last season of 24 goals and 32 assists during his rookie campaign.

There’s no player that is more fun to watch on the roster for the Canes right now than Aho. Him and Skinner are a treat to watch on a nightly basis, and if you’re a Canes fan that appreciates offense, these are the guys to be thankful for.
