The Carolina Hurricanes suffered a 4-1 loss to the Buffalo Sabres, marking the end of their four-game road trip. The game was marked by a strong start, with both teams trading power-play goals, but the Sabres pulled ahead in the second period with two even-strength goals. Despite a valiant third-period effort, the Hurricanes couldnt mount a comeback. Coach Rod BrindAmour and defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere attributed the loss to a lack of energy, possibly due to a flu bug affecting some players. Forward Andrei Svechnikov celebrated his 500th NHL game, while captain Jordan Staal was absent due to illness. The Hurricanes will now head home to regroup and prepare for a seven-game home stretch, starting with a Thanksgiving Eve match against the New York Rangers.
