With the NHL on break for this weekend’s All-Star game, there has not been a ton of news to talk about, however, The Athletic and TSN’s Pierre LeBrun has reported that the Carolina Hurricanes are “monitoring closely” the Chicago Blackhawks current goaltending situation, namely Robin Lehner.
The Hurricanes have had an inconsistent Petr Mrazek and a resurgent James Reimer between the pipes this season but want to find another level of goaltending performance, something Lehner could provide.
The issue with all of this speculation around Lehner is that he has been electric for the Blackhawks and has been pivotal, along with Corey Crawford, in the Blackhawks’ current position in the standings.
