In the second period, it became 2-0 for the Hurricanes at the 2:46 mark. Evgeny Kuznetsov took an initial shot from the top of the crease and it was stopped. Dmitry Orlov ripped a slap shot from the left circle which was saved. Martin Necas smashed a slap shot from the right-circle dot for his 21st of the season.
The Canes make it 3-0 at 8:27 of the second. Jalen Chatfield connected a pass from the right point. Kuznetsov placed in a snap shot from the inner left circle for his seventh tally of the year.
The Panthers pulled their goalie for an extra attacker with five minutes to go in the third period. Carolina increased it to 4-0 when Andrei Svechnikov banked a shot from his own zone into an empty net with 4:18 remaining.
Both clubs met each other just three weeks ago at the same venue. Florida(45-18-4) was shut out in both games that were played in Raleigh this season.
