Flyers Earn First Point of the Season Against Carolina
The Flyers rallied late, but an overtime goal from the Hurricanes' Seth Jarvis left them still searching for their first win of the season.
The team earned their first point of the season against a team considered one of the best in the Metropolitan Division.
- The Flyers lost 4-3 in overtime on a one-timer by Seth Jarvis with 17 seconds left.
- A potential game-winner by Bobby Brink was overturned with 54 seconds left due to a questionable call.
- The referees determined Travis Sanheim had "impaired Frederik Andersen's ability to play his position in the crease."
The goal came after it appeared that the goalie had initiated the contact by pushing his arms out into Sanheim.
The point is the first in the Rick Tocchet era.
