Martin Necas continued his recent hot stretch by scoring the tiebreaking goal with 31 seconds left as the Carolina Hurricanes beat the visiting Philadelphia Flyers 6-4 on Tuesday night in Raleigh, N.C.
Necas delivered his seventh goal of the season as the Hurricanes stretched their league-best active winning streak to seven games. Combined with an earlier assist, he has 20 points in the past 10 games.
Jackson Blake, Eric Robinson, Jordan Martinook and Jack Roslovic also scored for Carolina before Seth Jarvis capped the result with an empty-net goal. Brent Burns provided two assists. Pyotr Kochetkov overcame an uneven performance with 12 saves for the victory.
Travis Konecny racked up two goals and two assists for the Flyers, who began a three-game road trip.
Owen Tippett and Morgan Frost also scored for Philadelphia. Sean Couturier had two assists and Tippett added an assist. Aleksei Kolosov stopped 29 shots.
The Flyers showed more offensive execution but not a whole lot of punch overall after managing a total of only four goals in their previous three games. Philadelphia was held to three shots on goal in both the second and third periods.
Konecny opened the game's scoring with the only power-play goal of the night for either team. Blake tied the game for Carolina during the first period, and Robinson and Martinook scored within a 56-second span of the second period to make it 3-1 Hurricanes. It was Martinook's first goal of the season.
Tippett cut into that deficit for Philadelphia at the 13:30 mark of the middle frame.
Frost tied the score just 1:18 into the third period with his first tally of the year, but Carolina had a quick response as Roslovic got the momentum back for the Hurricanes just 29 seconds later.
Soon it was Konecny's turn again, as he converted off a Carolina turnover to register his seventh goal of the season with 10:43 remaining in regulation, creating a 4-4 tie.
