The Carolina Hurricanes have quietly put together a four-game win streak and they’ll put it on the line tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers. Here’s the pre-game report.
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
PHILADELPHIA
Oskar Lindblom - Sean Couturier - Jakub Voracek
Claude Giroux - Morgan Frost - Travis Konecny
Joel Farabee - Kevin Hayes - Tyler Pitlick
James van Riemsdyk - Michael Raffl - Andy Andreoff
Ivan Provorov - Matt Niskanen
Shayne Gostisbehere - Justin Braun
Travis Sanheim - Philippe Myers
Brian Elliott
Carter Hart
It looks like the lines are the same for Carolina and Haydn Fleury will be scratched in favour of Trevor van Riemsdyk. Petr Mrazek is expected to start for the Hurricanes, while Brian Elliott is expected to get the call for the Flyers.
Philadelphia has struggled on the road, winning just four of 11 away games so far this year. Contrast this with Carolina’s 7-3 home record and the Hurricanes are certainly the favourite tonight. The Flyers did win the only game of the season between the two teams thus far by a score of 4-1 earlier in the month.
