Jokinen's first goal was his 355th point with the Panthers and his second score was his 158th goal. Both records previously belonged to Scott Mellanby.

Gregory Campbell also had two goals for the Panthers, who went 4-0 against the Flyers last season. Richard Zednik and Bryan Allen each had two assists.

Joffrey Lupul, Jeff Carter and Lasse Kukkonen scored for the Flyers, who had their five-game winning streak snapped.

HURRICANES 6, SABRES 2: Eric Staal, Jeff Hamilton, Cory Stillman and Bret Hedican scored third-period goals to help Carolina end a recent streak of futility against Buffalo.
