In our next heart stopping NHL matchup, we have the Carolina Hurricanes at the Philadelphia Flyers.
Carolina’s imposing figures in the net are Pyotr Kochetkov, and Frederik Andersen who’s been phenomenal the last month with a 94.3 save %. Keep your eyes on Martin Necas and Jordan Martinook of the Hurricanes, these locomotives really pack a punch. Necas delivered 10 goals and 17 assists during the last month. Talk about being on fire!
Turning over to the Flyers, Samuel Ersson and Ivan Fedotov are guarding the posts. Ersson seems more reliable with a slightly higher save percentage. Travis Konecny is looking sharp having delivered 9 goals and 11 assists in the past month, but we're going to need more than just one man on skates to win this thing.
In the recent history books of head to head matchups, the Hurricanes have come out more dominant against the Flyers. Hurricanes have tidier regular season records too. But hey, this ain’t history, it's live ice hockey!
Of late, the Hurricanes have had a mixed bag of results but managed to freeze St. Louis with a 4-1 win. The Flyers, on the other hand, appeared shaky with their most recent defeat against Colorado.
Am I missing something here?
Well, it's time for the best part, the crystal ball moment. Drumroll, please.
