Game 27: Carolina Hurricanes (15-10-1) @ Tampa Bay Lightning (11-15-1)

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

The Canes travel to the Bay area as they take on the Lightning is a must win game for the Canes. Winnipeg is coming on strong and only trails the Canes by one point so if the Canes want to stay atop the division, they need a win tonight.

The Canes will have a new face in the line-up tonight as Adam Hall will be switching natural forces and joining the Hurricanes in the away locker room tonight.

The Canes will roll with the following line-up...

Jiri Tlusty - Eric Staal - Alexander Semin

Jeff Skinner - Jordan Staal - Patrick Dwyer

Drayson Bowman - Riley Nash - Jussi Jokinen

Adam Hall - Tim Brent - Tim Wallace

Jay Harrison - Justin Faulk

Tim Gleason - Joe Corvo

Joni Pitkanen - Jamie McBain

Justin Peters

Dan Ellis

Inactive: Tuomo Ruutu, Bobby Sanguinetti, Kevin Westgarth

Injured: Chad LaRose (concussion), Cam Ward (MCL)

The Lightning will roll with Mathieu Garon in net who has a record of 2-7-0, unfortunately for the Canes; Garon's two wins have come against the Canes.

As far as injuries go, the Lightning will be without Vincent Lecavalier, Benoit Pouliot, and possibly Tom Pyatt.

It's time to get back on track...

LET'S GO CANES!!!

Quick update, Pitkanen is playing tonight.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Anyone watching?

[Goosfraba21]

Decent first period. Somehow Garon always plays great against us.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

So we have three inactive's tonight being that Ruutu, Sangs, and Westy are all on the trip... that leaves us with only two injured players, Rosey and Wardo.

[Jakob]

Not the best period but I feel we will still come out with a win.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]
