Flyers have potential first win wiped away on questionable call; earn point against Carolina

Flyers Earn First Point of the Season Against Carolina

The Flyers rallied twice but ultimately lost 4-3 in overtime to the Carolina Hurricanes. Despite the loss, they earned their first point of the season under head coach Rick Tocchet.

The game saw two comebacks in regulation, with the Flyers battling back to tie the score. However, an overtime goal from Seth Jarvis with 17 seconds left secured the win for the Hurricanes.

The referees said the situation room determined Travis Sanheim had “impaired Frederik Andersen’s ability to play his position in the crease.”

A potential game-winner by Bobby Brink was overturned with 54 seconds left due to the call, leading to the eventual overtime loss. The Flyers are still searching for their first win of the season.
