Absolutely no news has been made available to fans about the lineups. I would hope that Nodl is back in the line up and that they give Ellis another shot, but I fully expect Wardo to get the start.

The Canes need this game, they can't afford to lose four straight and they have a great chance to avoid that losing streak against the Islanders tonight.

Kevin Poulin has been recalled from the AHL and make is NHL debut in net for New York tonight.

The Canes are expected to be without Joni Pitkanen, Jeff Skinner, Tim Gleason, Tim Brent, and Tuomo Ruutu.

The Islanders will be without Matt Carkner and Jesse Joensuu.

Go Canes

    • Moton should be back in 27 just due to the guarantees. I can't see us cutting him and eating that cap hit. Trade might be a bit different, but how many teams trade for 20m tackles?  I wouldn't be surprised to see us take 2 this year, 1 in the first and one in the 4th that has potential to play inside if they don't develop as quickly. Our line is awfully thin atm with the unknown injury Hunt got during the postseason. Even if Hunt's ok, we still lack depth. I could see is walking away from this draft with 2 tackles and a center, especially if we move down to pick up an extra 3rd or 4th. 
    • He was so up and down for 4 seasons. They declined his 5 year option for a reason  Oloukon has been their LB1.  Evero loves to send pressure so my guess is if Lloyd is going to be used a 3 down back here he’ll be blitzing on 3rd down a lot. Would’ve liked to have signed someone a lot quicker if that’s the case. Lloyd isn’t very explosive. Used to be
