This team is incredible. Game by game, period by period, shift by shift this team is flat out dominating teams in all facets of the game. Come playoff time, they will be an absolute handful for opposing teams.
Player of the Game: Carter Hart (28 Saves)
The Flyers got a goal whenever they needed too, something that cannot be said about the ‘Canes, however. Hart, who didn’t play in WAS last night, looked as sharp as ever stopping 28 of 29 shots.
