Key to the win was once again goalkeeper Antti Raanta, who blocked 19 shots for a second consecutive shutout. On Tuesday against the Chicago Blackhawks, the Finnish bouncer won the opposition’s 24 attacks 3-0.
With no responses against the Hurricanes after a seven-goal game against the Montreal Canadiens the previous day, the Panthers missed six power plays. The Hurricanes, for their part, hit three times on the power play thanks to Stefan Noesen, Andrei Svechnikov and Teuvo Teravainen.
Jesperi Kotkaniemi had a good game with one goal and one assist. The former Habs has had some good times lately with five points in as many games.
In the loss, Spencer Knight faced 30 shots from the Canes. The young goalkeeper has been defeated in his last three starts.
