The Carolina Hurricanes are back at it again tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers.
Both teams 0-1-1 through 2 games in 2026-27. It'll be interesting to see how the Canes do in the second half of a back to back
The hope is that they get off the schneid & claim their first win

Still lots of hockey left on the season. The Hurricanes do have a point through two games with room to get back in a groove.
