It’s been so far, so good for Hurricanes goaltender Frederik Andersen, as he was the star of the game last night in Carolina’s 3-2 win against the Nashville Predators. Looking sharp, he allowed just two goals on 40 shots.
It was a clear goalie battle as the Hurricanes faced the Predators for their 17th meeting since January. Their last matchup was the finale to the first round of the playoffs, where the Canes managed to defeat the Predators in six games.
The Hurricanes were coming off a season-opening win against the Islanders, and the Predators were fresh off of a loss to the Seattle Kraken.
