Frederik Andersen made 44 saves for Carolina, which was playing the fifth game of a six-game trip. Eric Robinson, Sebastian Aho and Logan Stankoven also scored as the Hurricanes built a 4-1 lead.
Valeri Nichushkin scored twice for Colorado, tying it at 4 on a power play with 5:11 left regulation. Parker Kelly and Martin Necas also scored.
Scott Wedgwood allowed four goals on 11 shots in the first 13:40 for Colorado. Trent Miner rook over, making 20 saves without allowing a goal.
