The Carolina Hurricanes (38-15-6) begin a four game road trip out west as they take on the Seattle Kraken (28-22-9) at Climate Pledge Arena tonight. Game time is 10 P.M. Eastern.
The Hurricanes are currently the hottest team in the NHL and are sporting a 10-0-2 record in their last 12 games. This is the fourth longest point streak in franchise history.
Rod Brind’Amour recently stated that he would probably rotate goalies the rest of the season. Since Frederik Andersen got the last start, it would seem that Brandon Bussi will get the start tonight.
Bussi has put together an amazing 24-3-1 record.
The Canes are led by Sebastian Aho (22G 37A) who has 59 points in 59 games.
Andrei Svechnikov (21G 30A) is right behind with 51 points.
The Kraken are currently sitting in fourth place in the Pacific Division, good to make the playoffs as of today but they are in a precarious position.
Their 65 points put them just three points ahead of three teams with 62, the Preds, Sharks, and Kings.
Jordan Eberle leads them with 41 points in 57 games.
While the team’s scoring is not among the best, they do have suitable defense and above average goaltending.
Joey Daccord has won six of his last seven starts. (17-13-5, .904 SV%, 2.75GAA)
A very capable Philipp Grubauer shares duties in net. (11-7-3, .914 SV%, 2.50GAA)
This will be a week of late nights for Caniacs so stock up on your caffeine products!
The game will be televised by the FanDuel Sports Network with the usual suspects providing play-by-play and analysis.
