There is no secret that I have no love for the use of only 11 forwards along with 7 defenders, regardless of how good those defenders are. Seems that Don Waddell somewhat agrees. The Carolina Hurricanes called up Eetu Luostarinen to replace fellow countryman Erik Huala on the roster in time for the home game against the New York Rangers.
Erik Huala who has missed another practice today has again aggravated his knee, which he injured late last season with the Vegas Golden Knights. He seems to be not as serious however and is listed as day to day.
