PHILADELPHIA -- After netting just two assists in his first four games, second-year defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere enjoyed a breakout game Saturday night against the Carolina Hurricanes, recording a goal and two assists in a 6-3 win at the Wells Fargo Center.

"I think we all felt confident out there," Gostisbehere said after his first multi-point game of the season. "We're getting in the groove with things and making plays again. It was a good team win."

Jakub Voracek scored a pair of goals and five different players found the back of the net for the Flyers, who snapped a three-game losing streak to improve to 2-2-1 this season.

Defenseman Justin Faulk, Jordan Staal and Lee Stempniak scored and Eddie Lack made 21 saves for Carolina, which is 1-2-2 to start the season. The Hurricanes will return home on Sunday before concluding their six-game road trip Tuesday night in Detroit.

"It's not the way we wanted to end it," Hurricanes left winger Jeff Skinner said. "Things kind of opened up there in the second period and they capitalized on their chances. We've got one more road game coming up and we've got to be good in that game.

"We'll get home for one day, regroup and go back and have a good one in Detroit."

Forwards Wayne Simmonds and Matt Read and defenseman Brandon Manning also scored for the Flyers, while goaltender Steve Mason picked up his first win of the season with 27 saves.

The Flyers carried a 4-3 lead into the final period and received goals from Simmonds at 12:27 and Voracek with 2:27 remaining to seal the win.

After combining for just 12 shots in a scoreless first period, the two teams exploded for seven goals on 27 shots in the second period.

The Hurricanes jumped out to a 2-0 lead on goals by Faulk and Staal in the opening 3:07 of the period, only to see the Flyers score four straight times.

"We need the puck more," Hurricanes coach Bill Peters said. "We need to hang on to the puck more and spend more time in the O zone."

Faulk opened the scoring with the Hurricanes' sixth power-play goal in five games just 50 seconds into the second period and Staal doubled the advantage when he snapped a cross-ice feed from Joakim Nordstrom past Mason for his second goal of the season.

The Flyers tilted the ice after that, getting even-strength goals from Manning, Voracek, Read and Gostisbehere in a span of 12:27.

Manning started the onslaught at the 4:50 mark when he tucked the puck behind Lack from below the goal line for his first of the season. Voracek followed with his first of the season with a redirection of a point shot by rookie defenseman Ivan Provorov.

Provorov picked up his second assist of the night when he set up Read for his team-leading fifth goal of the season.

"Right from Day One he's been moving his feet and playing with speed," Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said of Read, who managed just 11 goals last season. "With that comes the tenacity of his game and the confidence of his game."

When Gostisbehere fired a wrister past Lack for his first goal, it looked like the Flyers might be on their way to a romp of the road-weary Hurricanes.

Instead, the 33-year-old Stempniak gave the Hurricanes some life with his fourth goal of the season with 66 seconds remaining in the second period, converting on a nice feed from top-line center Victor Rask.
