Potential Goalie Matchup:

Today’s early game will be on NBC only and will not be covered on Fox Sports Carolinas. Prepare yourself appropriately for this change.

The lines going into the last game were thrown into the old’ hockey line blender left behind by Bill Peters that saw Jordan Martinook get some first-line time so do not hold me accountable for this potential lineup. The Goaltending decision will once again be kept close to the chest, but according to Rod Brind’Amour, it is the easiest choice since he has faith in both of his netminders.
