Philadelphia Flyers at Carolina Hurricanes
· National Hockey LeagueNecas scores go-ahead goal with 29 seconds left, Hurricanes beat Flyers 6-4
It was the seventh straight win for the Hurricanes, who also got goals from Jack Roslovic, Jordan Martinook, Eric Robinson and Jackson Blake. Seth Jarvis added an empty-net goal in the final seconds.
Necas typically saves his game-winners for overtime, with nine in his career, but he was able to take care of business in regulation with his team-best seventh goal of the season.
Travis Konecny scored two goals and had two assists for the Flyers. Morgan Frost and Owen Tippett also scored for Philadelphia.
Aleksei Kolosov made 28 saves for the Flyers, who trailed 2-1, 3-1 and 4-3 but kept coming back. Carolina’s Pyotr Kochetkov struggled in net allowing four goals on just 16 shots.
Hurricanes: When the Hurricanes lost a chunk of their forward production to free agency in the offseason, Blake wasn’t on the top of the list of expected contributors. The rookie continues to find ways to help with his fourth goal of the season.
CAR leads series 1-0
