Overview
- Carolina closed the series with a 3-2 overtime win in Philadelphia on Saturday, as Jackson Blake scored 5:28 into the extra period in Game 4.
- Blake finished with two goals, Taylor Hall set up three scores, Logan Stankoven netted his playoff-leading seventh, and Frederik Andersen improved to 8-0.
- Philadelphia got goals from Tyson Foerster and Alex Bump and 37 saves from Dan Vladar, but its power play went 1-for-19 in the series.
- A potential Carolina go-ahead by Mark Jankowski in the second period was wiped out after a successful goalie-interference challenge, and the Hurricanes still outshot the Flyers 40-17.
- Carolina now waits for Buffalo or Montreal in the Eastern Conference Final, a break that offers recovery time yet tests game sharpness after back-to-back sweeps.
