The Canes will face the Florida Panthers tonight in a pivotal early-season Central Division showdown.
Rod Brind’Amour spoke to the media ahead of the game, here’s a full breakdown of everything he had to say:
On the Panthers: Just watching, they’re a high-end team… Their power play’s great, and they score a lot of goals on the rush. They’re a fast team. We’ve got to be ready for that pace for sure.
On the lineup: We’re not changing the lineup, so everything’s going to stay the same. We’re leaning towards [Alex Nedeljkovic] right now in net.
