Carolina Hurricanes (5-5) at Tampa Bay Lightning (7-3)
If the Hurricanes are going to keep their season alive, they’ll need to win three straight against the Tampa Bay Lightning. That starts tonight at PNC Arena, as the Canes look to shake off a tough loss in game four - and stay out of the penalty box.
The Canes could get some reinforcements in their lineup - Nino Niederreiter returned to practice yesterday, and Rod Brind’Amour said each of Niederreiter, Warren Foegele and Vincent Trocheck would take warmups tonight and see how they feel.
