Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Jaccob Slavin exited early in a 4-3 overtime win against the Philadelphia Flyers, appearing injured and missing most of the third period and overtime. Coach Rod Brind’Amour said Slavin came up “a little gimpy,” and his status for the upcoming six-game road trip is uncertain, with more information expected Monday. Slavin, 31, played over 20 minutes in the season opener but logged less than 4.5 minutes after the second period in the Flyers game. The team has not released details on the injury’s nature or severity, and his availability for future games remains unclear.
