We sit for a few days, maybe you lose that. So it&#8217;s nice just to go out there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Philadelphia Flyers hold a 3-2 advantage in their first-round series against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Flyers look to close out the Penguins on Wednesday night at home.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the Penguins win, it will push the series to seven games, which would likely further delay the start of the Canes next series, since they\u2019ll play the winner between the two Pennsylvania teams.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes got a welcome sight during Wednesday morning\u2019s practice. Rookie defenseman Alexander Nikishin was back on the ice in a yellow, no-contact jersey just a day after Brind\u2019Amour told reporters he was \u201chopeful\u201d he\u2019d be ready for their second round game.<\/p>\n<p>Nikishin suffered a concussion this past Saturday after a scary hit in Game 4 versus Ottawa, which took him out of the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think he&#8217;s feeling good,&#8221; Brind\u2019Amour said of Nikishin. &#8220;Whatever he&#8217;s got to do to get tested, it&#8217;s all going along in the right direction.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nikishin was on the ice alongside his line partner Shayne Gostisbehere, but taking precaution in Wednesday\u2019s drills. Being back on the ice and getting one step closer in the concussion protocol was a welcome sight for his teammates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConcussions are never a straight line to coming back,\u201d forward Taylor Hall said. \u201cThere are good days and bad days, and as you progress and go harder and harder, you might feel differently.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Canes F Taylor Hall on Alexander Nikishin: &amp;apos;Concussions are never a straight line&amp;apos;\" width=\"1366\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V2yZcuV0BkU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If Nikishin can\u2019t play, the Canes have Mike Reilly ready to go, and they recalled Charles Alexis LeGault from the Chicago Wolves earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p>Reilly is the Canes\u2019 seventh defenseman at full health.<\/p>\n<p>The Canes will not practice on Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/embed.audiocdn.com\/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLmNkbnN0cmVhbTEuY29tL3pqYi9mZWVkL2Rvd25sb2FkLzc0L2Q4L2RhLzc0ZDhkYWNmLTk0OTUtNDY3YS04YjEzLTBiZjVhOTdjNTJkNy54bWw=&amp;pbg=EFEFEF&amp;lbg=F9F9F9&amp;pt=353D58&amp;st=676E85&amp;bbg=FFFFFF&amp;bi=353D58&amp;limit=10&amp;dl=1&amp;rss=1\" width=\"556\" height=\"800\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wral.com\/sports\/carolina-hurricanes-practice-await-second-round-opponent-playoffs-april-2026\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the Carolina Hurricanes await their next opponent in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the team is staying as sharp as they can at practice.
