Overview

• Carolina opened 1-0 with a 6-3 win over New Jersey, highlighted by K'Andre Miller scoring twice in his Hurricanes debut and Seth Jarvis netting two third-period goals.
• Flyers coach Rick Tocchet confirmed Nikita Grebenkin and Jett Luchanko will play after both were scratched in the season-opening loss in Florida.
• Philadelphia adjusts its forward groups, with a projected top line of Sean Couturier between Travis Konecny and Matvei Michkov, and Sam Ersson starting in goal over Dan Vladar.
• The Hurricanes are projected to go back to Frederik Andersen with Brandon Bussi as backup, as coach Rod Brind'Amour said Pyotr Kochetkov is likely out about a week.
• Carolina wraps a two-game homestand before a six-game road trip that begins Tuesday in San Jose, having swept Philadelphia in last season’s meetings.
