That’s where it got away from us tonight. ”Sissons put the Predators ahead in the first period when he was left unmarked in the right circle and whistled a wrist shot past Gibson for his fifth goal in 17 career regular-season games against Anaheim. “We made it hard on them, ” Sissons said. “They could barely catch their breath for a while there while we rolled (lines) on them. ”Sissons has been an unlikely offensive threat against the Ducks for most of his career. The depth-line grinder with just one 10-goal season in his decade in Nashville had the greatest game of his NHL life against the Ducks, posting a hat trick in the Preds’ clinching Game 6 victory in the 2017 Western Conference finals.
The Hurricanes have registered a league-high five shutouts. “They don’t give you a whole lot of easy ice, so there’s not a lot of inside plays, ” Panthers coach Paul Maurice said. “But we tried to find them. ”Raanta, playing for a fourth straight game, faced only three shots in the first period. In the third period, the Panthers didn’t put a shot on goal for eight minutes. He shut out the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday night. “Try to make the save one at a time and obviously guys are playing well in front of me so that helps, ” Raanta said. The season-high three power-play goals came after the Metropolitan Division-leading Hurricanes had a total of two goals on power plays in their previous five games. Carolina ranked 27th in the NHL on power plays entering the game.
He might re-enter the lineup for Sunday’s Game 3, according to head coach Paul Maurice. [COVERAGE BEGINS AT 9 P. M.

The injury-riddled Avalanche remain without forwards Gabriel Landeskog, Valeri Nichushkin, Darren Helm and Martin Kaut, as well as defensemen Bowen Byram and Josh Manson. Goaltender Pavel Francouz also has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury. RALEIGH, N. C. — Antti Raanta made 19 saves for his second straight shutout and the 17th of his career, and the Carolina Hurricanes scored on three power plays for their franchise-record 10th consecutive victory, beating the Florida Panthers 4-0 on Friday night. Stefan Noesen, Andrei Svechnikov and Teuvo Teravainen had the power-play goals and Jesperi Kotkaniemi posted the team’s fourth goal just 10 seconds after another man-advantage situation expired.
”Noesen knocked in a rebound of teammate Sebastian Aho’s shot 7:05 into the game. Aho’s assist gave him his first point in three games since returning from a seven-game absence with an injury. Svechnikov’s team-leading 19th goal came at 4:58 of the second period. About seven minutes later, Teravainen scored his third of the season. BACK-TO-BACKCombined with goalie Pyotr Kochetkov‘s shutouts in consecutive games earlier this month, the Hurricanes became the first NHL team in seven seasons to have two goalies with shutouts in back-to-back games in the same season.
“Our offensive zone work was good, especially in the second period. There’s been something missing there this season, so it was good to get that going. ”After his three-point performance in Orange County, Forsberg is just two points shy of becoming the third player in Predators history to score 500 points.
His goal on the doorstep off a defensive misplay put the Predators up 3-1 in the second period, blowing open a previously tight game with his 11th goal of the season. Sam Carrick scored and John Gibson stopped 37 shots in another dismal effort by the Ducks, who have lost four of five. Anaheim dropped to 1-2-1 on its franchise-record, 10-game homestand, and the beleaguered club finished the 2022 calendar year with a dismal record of 24-51-11. “It’s no secret that we’re in a rebuild, ” Anaheim coach Dallas Eakins said.
“We’re trying to develop players on the fly. We’re doing our best to compete every night, and … when you are a team like that, you can’t make mistakes, and you certainly cannot do things by yourself. We can’t have guys being single contractors. You need your teammates, and you have to play the system so we can have some success.
“We’ve been struggling all year to get that going, ” Kotkaniemi said. The Panthers were 0 for 6 on power plays after scoring three times on power plays Thursday night. Florida hasn’t won two games in a row since its first two games of December. “We got to learn how to fight, ” Maurice said. Panthers goalie Spencer Knight made 30 saves. It had been exactly a year since the Hurricanes managed to post three power-play goals in a game. “We know how important it is, ” Brind’Amour said. “We got our opportunities, they went in. It doesn’t always work that way.
I thought we had the puck a lot of the night and played in their zone. We put a lot of pucks through; we just didn’t find a way to get one. That’s the way it goes. They get a tip. We don’t. That’s playoff hockey. ” Dubois will be good to go for Game 2. Ehlers shed his non-contact jersey on Friday but will not play.
Carrick got credit for evening it early in the second period when Urho Vaakanainen‘s shot into traffic ricocheted sharply off Carrick’s hip, resulting in only his second goal of the season. But Nashville reclaimed the lead when Ducks defenseman Cam Fowler‘s giveaway set up a quick shot by Trenin for a goal in his second straight game. “Nashville has an excellent team, ” Eakins said. “I’m not sure their record shows exactly what they have there. … The one thing I do think Nashville does very well is they play with each other.
ET – NBC (livestream) DENVER — The Colorado Avalanche activated forward Nathan MacKinnon from injured reserve before their game against Toronto on Saturday night.
