Recommended Posts

PREVIOUS MEETINGS THIS SEASON

  • Thursday, January 5: The Canes posted a franchise record of 67 shots, but Jusse Saros stopped 64 of them, guiding Nashville to a 5-3 victory.

 

NEWS & NOTES

Last Time Out: Carolina got off to a good start Tuesday against Ottawa, taking a 2-0 first-period lead. Brady Skjei, Jesperi Kotkaniemi, and Stefan Noesen each earned a point on both goals and Antti Raanta looked like a goaltender that had earned a point in 16 consecutive decisions. Ottawa was the better team in the second and third periods though, crawling back into the contest and eventually forcing the 22nd overtime of the season for Carolina. But in the end, Martin Necas had another game-winner on his stick, pushing the home team to a 3-2 victory.

In Net: Rod Brind'Amour said pre-game Sunday that the plan is for the Canes to rotate their goalies for the rest of the regular season. With Antti Raanta having earned the victory on Tuesday against the Senators, it is expected that Frederik Andersen will have the nod tonight. "Freddie" stopped 21 out of 22 on Sunday against the New York Islanders and is 20-9-1 on the season.

Shooting For Three: Carolina is 44-4-5 when scoring three goals or more this season.

Get The First One: Carolina is now 38-5-4 when scoring the first goal of the game. Only the Bruins (40) have more wins when earning the contest's first tally.

-----------------------------------------------------

"Carolina is 44-4-5 when scoring three goals or more this season."

This also means Carolina is 6-14-4 if they can't put 3 goals on the board.

"Carolina is now 38-5-4 when scoring the first goal of the game."

And, this also means Carolina is 12-13-5 when they don't score first.
