The Canes didn't make the most of a good early start and fell, 4-2, to the Kings. The loss snapped their 7-game points streak. Jesperi Kotkaniemi got the Hurricanes on the board first with a deflection of Sean Walker's point drive with a little less than 5 minutes remaining in the first period. But, Dimitry Orlov's turnover went right to L-A's Phillip Daneault, who's shot beat Frederik Andersen to tie the game. Orlov was on the ice for 3 of the 4 Kings goals, and didn't play the last 8:20, after Kevin Fiala's second goal of the game made it 4-2. Eric Robinson's 12th goal of the season drew the Canes within a goal early in the 3rd, but they would get no closer.

Seth Jarvis scored shorthanded, Jaccob Slavin put on a clinic, and the Moose got loose for his first goal with the Hurricanes. The Canes defeated Chicago, 3-2. Mikko Rantanen's first goal with his new team gave Carolina a 2-1 lead early in the 2nd period. Then, just 1:07 later, Jaccob Slavin's rebound try of a Jackson Blake bid extended the Hurricanes' lead to 2-goals and they hung on for the win. Juha Jaaska had his first multi-point NHL game, assisting on the Jarvis goal - his 20th of the season and 3rd while shorthanded. Carolina played the game with just 17 skaters as Sebastian Aho and Taylor Hall each stayed home with whatever illness has been permeating through the Carolina dressing room. Ryan Suzuki, the Canes' 1st round pick in 2019, was called up from Chicago and made his NHL debut. Due to the salary cap, the Hurricanes could not call up another player. Pyotr Kochetkov made 18 saves for his 19th win of the year.

Frederik Andersen stopped 22 shots and Andrei Svechnikov scored twice as the Canes blanked the Rangers at the Garden, 4-0. Svechnikov scored 56 seconds into the game and then made it 2-0 with 31 seconds left in the 2nd period. Sebastian Aho and Seth Jarvis added goals early in the 3rd period. Taylor Hall and Mikko Rantanen each had a primary assist on Svechnikov's goals. It was the 3rd straight win for the Hurricanes over the Rangers this year. New York is 0-9 on the power play against Carolina.
