Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov stopped all 26 shots he faced, and defenseman Sean Walker scored two goals as the Hurricanes defeated the Winnipeg Jets 7-0 on Sunday night in Raleigh, North Carolina.

The shutout was Kochetkov's first of the season. Walker's two goals came in the first period, helping Carolina build an early lead. The Hurricanes' offense added five more goals across the second and third periods.

Winnipeg's Dawson Mercer had a notable chance in the first period but was denied by Kochetkov. Jets defenseman Neal Pionk and forward Mark Scheifele were on the ice for Walker's celebrations.

The victory improves Carolina's record while Winnipeg falls to a loss. The game was played at PNC Arena on November 1, 2026.
