James Guillory-Imagn Images Monday, the Carolina Hurricanes will face the Philadelphia Flyers for Game 2 of Round Two in Lenovo Center – fresh off the heels of a series-opening thriller Saturday night. The game is scheduled for 7:00 PM EDT. In Game 1 of Round Two, the Hurricanes took the win with a decisive 3-0 shutout over an Owen Tippett-less Flyers, but it came with its own helping of drama.
Nearly 70 penalty minutes were assessed – many of which were due to roughing – and four players took early exits from the game due to altercations in the third period. In blanking the Flyers, Frederik Andersen became the first goaltender in franchise history to earn two consecutive series-opening shutouts after he started Round One without allowing a single goal, as well.

In the Crease Both Frederik Andersen and Dan Vladar have performed very well throughout the postseason – both having earned two shutouts apiece. At this time, there is nothing to suggest that there will be a change in net going into Game 2.
