The Hurricanes will continue to rest players on Monday, and Aho will be one of six players who will sit vs. the Flyers. Logan Stankoven will draw back into the lineup to replace Aho. With 80 points (27G / 53A) in 79 games this season, Aho has locked up a point-per-game season for the fifth time in his 10-year career.
With their playoff position firmly secured, the Hurricanes will give Aho, Seth Jarvis, and Andrei Svechnikov the night off on Thursday. Bradly Nadeau, Skyler Brind'Amour, and Charles-Alexis Legault will all slot in after being recalled on Wednesday.
With the Carolina Hurricanes locked into a first-round matchup against the New Jersey Devils, Aho will be one of several key players getting some extra rest on Wednesday night. The 27-year-old Aho has 74 points (29G / 45A) in 79 games this season.
Aho was absent from Carolina's morning skate on Thursday due to an illness and will be unavailable for their meeting with the Chicago Blackhawks. The 27-year-old Aho has 51 points (17G / 34A) in 51 games this season, including five points (3G / 2A) in his last three.

The Hurricanes play their final game of the season on Tuesday against the Columbus Blue Jackets and have opted to rest a variety of their lineup regulars. Aho ends the 2023-24 campaign with a career-high 89 points (36G / 53A) in 78 games.
The Hurricanes will welcome Aho back into their lineup on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Aho has missed the last three games after suffering an upper-body injury. He has three points (1G / 2A) and eight shots while averaging 21:00 time-on-ice through three games this season. He will immediately retake his place on the Hurricanes' first line and top power-play unit.
The Hurricanes will hope to welcome Aho, who is listed as a game-time decision, back into their lineup on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Aho has missed the last three games after suffering an upper-body injury. He has three points (1G / 2A) and eight shots while averaging 21:00 time-on-ice through three games this season. If Aho is unable to suit up, Teuvo Teravainen will likely remain on the top line as his replacement.
Aho was a late scratch to Tuesday's game thanks to the surprise upper-body injury, with the team announcing his absence just 30 minutes before puck drop. The driving force behind Carolina's offense, Aho has enjoyed a nice start to the season, picking up two goals and one assist with eight shots on goal through the first three games of the season. Teuvo Teravainen will attempt to fill the void left by Aho as he'll serve as the team's first line centre to begin Tuesday's game against the Sharks.
Aho reached 36+ goals for third time in the last four years in 2022-23 as he picked up 36 goals, 31 assists, 218 SOG, 42 PIMs and a +8 plus/minus through 75 games played and has now signed an eight-year, $78 million extension ($9,750,000 AAV). The 26-year-old centre has spent the first seven seasons of his career in Carolina after being drafted in the 2nd round of the 2015 NHL Draft (35th overall) and has 218 goals, 468 points and a +80 plus/minus through 520 career NHL games.
Aho has missed the Hurricane's last seven games due to a lower-body injury but play Friday after being a game-time decision as they take on the Flyers. If Aho does return, it will be massive for Carolina, as he had 11 goals, 27 points, 7 SOG, 18 PIMS and a +2 plus/minus through 26 games prior to the injury.

Aho remains day-to-day with a lower-body injury and will not be available for a second straight game. His next chance to return is Thursday vs. the Kraken on home-ice. Look for Paul Stastny to remain in the top-6 while Aho is out.
