Both have been in wins against the Carolina Hurricanes.Manning scored on a short-handed chance at the 8:00 mark of the third period, lifting the Flyers to a 4-3 victory over Carolina on Sunday, snapping a two-game losing streak.We hadnt really been getting our chances, Manning said.

So I saw an opportunity and Belle made a great play getting me the puck.Claude Giroux had a goal and an assist, giving him points in a league-high nine straight games. Shayne Gostisbehere and Radko Gudas also scored for the Flyers. Wayne Simmonds had two assists, and Michal Neuvirth stopped 26 shots.We got good efforts in all areas of our game, Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said.

We dont have the record we want right now, but were playing better as a team. I take a look at (my statistics) once in a while, but Im more worried about the minuses there. If you want to be a good player youve got to be responsible offensively and defensively, and weve got some work to do in there.Skinner beat Neuvirth from the right doorstep at 10:13 to tie it again. Carolina got the lead with 8:02 to go in the period when Stalberg got the puck by Neuvirths five-hole on a rush.The Flyers tied it again with 2:46 remaining in the second when Giroux scored from the slot.Game notes C Andrej Nestrasil, RW Martin Frk and D Jakub Nakladal were healthy scratches for Carolina. ...
