The Carolina Hurricanes are set to face the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday, maintaining their lineup strategy as they aim for a seventh consecutive victory. Despite injuries to Dmitry Orlov and Andrei Svechnikov, the team has continued its winning streak. Head Coach Rod Brind'Amour has indicated that Orlov could return at any time but will not be rushed back until fully fit. Svechnikov is "hopeful" for a return next week.

Pyotr Kochetkov will start as goaltender, having been impressive since January with a record of 9-2-2 and a .913 save percentage in his last 13 games. His recent performance against Tampa Bay marked his 24th win of the season, setting a personal best.

The projected lineup includes forwards Jarvis, Aho, Blake; Hall, Kotkaniemi, Roslovic; Martinook, Staal, Stankoven; Robinson, Jankowski, Jost. On defense are Slavin and Burns; Gostisbehere and Chatfield; Walker and Morrow. Kochetkov will be in goal with Andersen as backup.

Injuries include William Carrier (lower-body), Jesper Fast (neck), Dmitry Orlov (upper-body), and Andrei Svechnikov (upper-body). The power play units are set with PP1 featuring Aho, Hall Jarvis, Stankoven with Gostisbehere; PP2 includes Blake, Kotkaniemi, Roslovic with Burns and Walker.

The game against Philadelphia is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.
