Carolina Hurricanes vs. Columbus Blue Jackets: Thursday lineups and game discussion

Carolina Hurricanes (20-7-1) vs. Columbus Blue Jackets (11-12-7)

The 2021 editions of the Carolina Hurricanes and Columbus Blue Jackets are going to get very familiar with each other over the next eight days. Tonight’s game will kick off four straight matchups between the former Metropolitan Division Opponents.

Tonight will also represent a milestone for one Hurricane, as Jordan Martinook will play his 400th NHL game.

With Petr Mrazek not ready to return and the rotation the Canes have been using in net, it’s expected that Alex Nedeljkovic will get the nod between the pipes tonight.
