Edmonton Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers (29-21-3; 24-29 ATS) lost to Carolina on Sunday, 2-1. The loss dropped the Oilers to 15-10-3 on the road, as the team went 5-2-0 on the road in February. The only two losses were at Tampa Bay and Carolina, two of the top four teams in the NHL.
Two first-period goals by the Hurricanes doomed Edmonton in the loss. However, Mike Smith looked solid, stopping 27 of 29 shots. Smith had been in a bit of a rut, allowing 11 total goals over his previous three starts, but rebounded nicely against a very tough Hurricanes team. Edmonton is now 23rd in goals allowed per game at 3.2, but has been even better on the road, allowing 3.0 per contest.
Philadelphia Flyers
The Philadelphia Flyers (16-26-10; 26-26 ATS) snap their six-game winless streak, defeating Washington, 2-1. Philadelphia had gone 0-4-2 in their previous six games. The victory also snapped a four-game winless streak at home that saw the team go 0-3-1. The Flyers are 9-13-5 at the Wells Fargo Center.
Philadelphia got first-period goals from Claude Giroux and Cam Atkinson to lead the offense. The pair are now tied for the team lead in points with 39. Carter Hart stopped 27 of 28 shots. That was a great rebound performance after giving up five goals in two of his three previous starts, allowing 13 total goals in the three outings. Philadelphia is 25th in the NHL in goals allowed per game (3.4).
