Projected Lineup - Flames vs. Hurricanes

The Calgary Flames and Carolina Hurricanes face off tonight at 7:00 PM MT, the first game of the two-game season series between the two clubs.
The following lines, pairings and starting goaltenders are from the Flames and Hurricanes practices on Wednesday. The Flames ran the lines and pairings they finished off Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Buffalo Sabres with while the Hurricanes ran the same forward lines they used in Edmonton Tuesday but swapped Jakub Nakladal with Klas Dahlbeck on defence. If lines or pairings change, they will be updated after this morning's skates.
