The Hurricanes took to the ice at Madison Square Garden for their morning skate at 11:30 this morning. They’re coming off of a thrilling 3-2 victory over the Florida Panthers on Sunday night, and they’ll look to sustain that momentum into a big divisional matchup tonight in the World’s Most Famous Arena ™. Here’s how they lined up this morning:
Jeff Skinner - Victor Rask - Elias Lindholm
Sebastian Aho - Teuvo Teravainen - Lee Stempniak
Phil di Giuseppe - Derek Ryan - Andrej Nestrasil
Joakim Nordstrom - Jay McClement - Viktor Stalberg
Ron Hainsey - Justin Faulk
Jaccob Slavin - Brett Pesce
Noah Hanifin - Matt Tennyson
Cam Ward
Michael Leighton
Injuries and Scratches: Jordan Staal (concussion), Bryan Bickell (multiple sclerosis), Brock McGinn (upper-body), Klas Dahlbeck (healthy)
So it’s Teravainen and not Lindholm moving to the middle in Staal’s absence.
