Los Angeles Kings (13-10-5) vs. Carolina Hurricanes (20-7-1)
Coming off a wonderful shorthanded 5-3 victory over the Detroit Red Wings, the Carolina Hurricanes will host the Kings Saturday with some new reinforcements added to the mix.
The Canes, who played with just 16 skaters Thursday, recalled Josh Leivo and C.J. Smith on an emergency basis Friday, which will allow Carolina to dress a full roster Saturday night (albeit one still missing six normal starters).
The Hurricanes had to add two more people to COVID protocol Friday, though no more players.
