The Chicago Blackhawks went more than 17 minutes before recording their first shot on goal — after giving up another short-handed goal to the Carolina Hurricanes’ Seth Jarvis.

The Chicago Blackhawks did not play a pretty game, taking on a Carolina Hurricanes team down a player for the night. The effort was there, even when the decision-making wasn’t. Ultimately, the talent gap was too big to overcome in a hard-fought 3-2 loss in Raleigh.

The Carolina Hurricanes will look to earn points in a sixth consecutive game as they host the Chicago Blackhawks (16-29-5). The Canes are coming off of a 4-0 shutout victory over the New York Rangers and tonight will also be the first home games for Mikko Rantanen and Taylor Hall with their new club.

Having played the Carolina Hurricanes just a week and a half ago in the Windy City, the Chicago Blackhawks went down to Carolina to take them on again on Thursday night.

Saturday night's game between the host Carolina Hurricanes and the Los Angeles Kings in Raleigh, N.C., features two teams going in opposite directions.

Mikko Rantanen is just beginning his time with the Carolina Hurricanes and has shared his feelings after scoring his first NHL goal with his new team in a win over the Chicago Blackhawks.

The 28-year-old forward was an elite scorer in his nine-plus seasons with Colorado, recording a career-best 105 points in 2022-23 and 104 last year. He is on track to pass 100 points again this season.

When the Carolina Hurricanes play the Chicago Blackhawks at PNC Arena on Thursday (starting at 7:00 PM ET), Sebastian Aho and Teuvo Teravainen will be two of the top players to watch. Purchase tickets for this game at StubHub!

RALEIGH, N.C. - Eric Tulsky, General Manager of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has recalled defenseman Riley Stillman from the Chicago Wolves of the American Hockey League (AHL) and assigned center Ryan Suzuki to Chicago.

The Finnish winger, obtained in mega trade with the Colorado Avalanche, earned his first goal as a Hurricane, while fellow newcomer Taylor Hall was a late scratch with an illness.

After seeing his role with the Chicago Blackhawks diminish in recent weeks, Hall welcomed the trade that sent him to the Carolina Hurricanes in a three-team blockbuster deal involving the Colorado Avalanche. Hall discussed the move from Raleigh, North Carolina, on Thursday, as reported by Mark Lazerus of The Athletic.
