Under head coach Rod BrindAmour, they dominated both series without losing a game, defeating the Ottawa Senators and the Philadelphia Flyers. The final handshake line after beating the Flyers, shared between BrindAmour and Flyers coach Rick Tocchet, both former NHL players, went viral. The crowd chanted Lets go Flyers to show appreciation for bringing playoff hockey back. BrindAmour praised Tocchet for turning the Flyers around in his first year, leading them to a forty-three wins, twenty-seven losses, twelve overtime losses record and their first playoffs since 2020, including a win over rivals Pittsburgh. Tocchet was also named Coach of the Year last season with Vancouver, indicating a promising future for him. The Hurricanes now await the winner between the Buffalo Sabres and Montreal Canadiens to determine their next opponent. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
