The Carolina Hurricanes are in Chicago tonight to face the Blackhawks. Here’s the pre-game report.

According to Scott King, the projected lineups are:

CAROLINA

Andrei Svechnikov - Sebastian Aho - Teuvo Teravainen
Ryan Dzingel - Jordan Staal - Warren Foegele
Nino Niederreiter - Lucas Wallmark - Martin Necas
Brock McGinn - Eetu Luostarinen - Jordan Martinook

Jaccob Slavin - Dougie Hamilton
Joel Edmundson - Brett Pesce
Jake Gardiner - Trevor van Riemsdyk

Petr Mrazek
James Reimer


CHICAGO

Alex Nylander - Jonathan Toews - Brandon Saad
Alex DeBrincat - Dylan Strome - Patrick Kane
Ryan Carpenter - David Kampf - Dominik Kubalik
Zack Smith - Kirby Dach - Andrew Shaw

Duncan Keith - Connor Murphy
Calvin de Haan - Brent Seabrook
Olli Maatta - Erik Gustafsson

Robin Lehner
Corey Crawford

I like Carolina’s idea to continue to try and spread scoring throughout their top three lines. It’ll work better once Erik Haula returns to the lineup but having Nino Niederreiter there makes sense in my opinion.

Can any Blackhawks fans reading this comment on why Kirby Dach is on the fourth line? Maybe there’s a legitimate reason that I’m just missing but this seems like an odd move, no?
Anyways, Robin Lehner, who’s been lights out once again this year, is Chicago’s expected starter.

Puck drop is at 8:30 p.m.
