Logan Stankoven Once Again Sets The Tone For The Hurricanes As They Coast Past Flyers In Game 1

For those thinking the week-long layoff would make the Carolina Hurricanes rusty in Game 1 of their series against the Philadelphia Flyers, well, think again.

The Hurricanes collected 10 of the game’s first 11 shots and built an early 2-0 lead Saturday night as they coasted to a 3-0 win over the turnover-plagued Flyers at the Lenovo Center.

Rusty?

Not the focused Hurricanes. They were sharp from the outset – especially 5-foot-8, 165-pound center Logan Stankoven -- and stretched their playoff record to 5-0, during which they have never trailed at any point. They have outscored their opponents, 14-5.

The Carolina Hurricanes got off to a blazing start against the Philadelphia Flyers in Game 1, once again thanks to the heroics of Logan Stankoven.
