Hurricanes One Win from East Final After Suffocating Flyers in Game 3 · May 7, 2026
Carolina moved to 7-0 in the 2026 playoffs with a commanding 4-1 win in Philadelphia, taking a 3-0 series lead. Jordan Staal's power-play strike opened the scoring, before Jalen Chatfield's short-handed goal — set up by a diving Martinook and a Staal backhand feed — proved the killer blow. Svechnikov's 4-on-3 one-timer and an Ehlers breakaway sealed it. The Hurricanes are now one win from the Eastern Conference Final.
