The Canes (32-31-11) are north of the border tonight in Canada's capital city to face the Ottawa Senators (26-36-11). Two struggling teams who are both at the end of overwhelmingly disappointing seasons.
Erik Karlsson is returning tonight after missing two games-- similar circumstances as the Jordan Staal family. Likely to be an emotional return.
Condon is in net for Ottawa. Darling? Ward? Who knows...
Aho is on a seven game point streak (3g, 7a). Karlsson (3g, 10a) in his past 10 games.
In Ottawa, one of the most loathed men is their owner, Eugene Melnyk, after threats to move the team if the city did not support his franchise. Guy Boucher and (perhaps?) Bill Peters will both be looking for contracts next season. Speaking of contracts, Karlsson will be tendered one by Ottawa come July 1st-- likely to hit the open market and not re-sign with the Sens.
Hurricanes projected lineup
Valentin Zykov -- Sebastian Aho -- Teuvo Teravainen
Brock McGinn -- Jordan Staal -- Justin Williams
Jeff Skinner -- Elias Lindholm -- Lee Stempniak
Joakim Nordstrom -- Derek Ryan -- Phillip Di Giuseppe
Jaccob Slavin -- Justin Faulk
Klas Dahlbeck -- Roland McKeown
Haydn Fleury -- Trevor van Riemsdyk
Ottawa's Projected Lineup:
Ryan Dzingel -- Matt Duchene -- Mike Hoffman
Magnus Paajarvi -- Jean-Gabriel Pageau -- Tom Pyatt
Bobby Ryan -- Zack Smith -- Alexandre Burrows
Max McCormick -- Filip Chlapik
Thomas Chabot -- Erik Karlsson
Christian Wolanin -- Cody Ceci
Mark Borowiecki -- Ben Harpur
Puck drops at 7PM.
Will it be hockey for you all or more NCAA basketball??
