Calgary beat Carolina, 3-2, with a late 3rd period goal as the Canes 7-game winning streak came to an end. The Hurricanes got goals from Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Jalen Chatfield, but couldn't find a third before Yegor Sherangovich put the Flames in front with about 4 1/2 minutes to play. Brandon Bussi made 31 saves in the loss. Before the game, the Canes found out that Mark Jankowski could not play due to a lower body injury. Afterwords, Rod Brind'Amour said that Jankowski was sent back to Raleigh for further evaluation. That marks the 4th foward out of the lineup.

Pyotr Kochetkov made 21 saves, Mark Jankowski scored a goal in his 6th straight game, and Jesperi Kotkaniemi broke a 38-game drought with a goal as the Canes opened up the State Fair road trip with a 3-2 win over the Jets. You could say that Carolina was responsible for all 5 goals on the night as both Winnipeg tallies were at least created by poor plays in their own end. Nikolaj Ehlers gave the puck away to Mark Scheifele for the 1st Jets goal. Then Kochetkov fumbled the puck outside his crease for the 2nd. But, Carolina scored twice on the power play and got strong efforts up and down the lineup in the win. Bradly Nadeau and Felix Unger-Sorum entered the chat due to injures along the forward line and each played well. Nadeau assisted on the Jankowski power play goal that got the Canes on the board in the 2nd period.

The Carolina Hurricanes picked up their 6th straight win, 4-2, over Washington as Andrei Svechnikov produced a couple of goals and an assist and Pyotr Kochetkov turned aside 20 of 22 Capitals shots in the win. Carolina fell behind by a goal twice during the game, but over the last 32 minutes played arguably their best hockey of the young season. Eric Robinson's second goal of the year tied the game at 2-2 right before the end of the period setting the stage for Svechnikov to put the Canes ahead on the power play with a shade more than 6 minutes to play. Sebastian Aho had 2 assists on the night. Carolina played without Jordan Staal for the second straight game and then lost Taylor Hall to an upper body injury after playing just over 4 minutes. It was announced before the game that Staal would be out for 1-2 months with a partially torn calf muscle.
