Carolina Hurricanes aim to overcome playoff struggles and advance further in the postseason after a strong start against the Flyers.
NHL rules state that players must go 41 games between ejections to avoid suspension. Rantanen's second ejection, for boarding Calgary Flames forward Matt Coronato, came four days after his first ejection on a play that earned Rantanen widespread derision from fans -- and one very angry coach. On Nov. 18, Rantanen skated through a check by New York Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield and shoved defenseman Alexander Romanov in the back, sending him violently into the end boards.
