Projected Lineup: January 27 vs. San Jose

RALEIGH, NC. -The Carolina Hurricanes are expected to stick with the same lineup that closed out their victory Wednesday night in Dallas as they host the San Jose Sharks on Friday.

Goaltender Antti Raanta was in the starter's crease at morning skate after stopping all 15 shots in relief
en route to the team's most recent 3-2 victory in overtime
. Raanta was forced into action after Frederik Andersen did not return for the second period due to an upper-body injury.
The victory was Raanta's first in-game action since January 7 in Columbus.
Despite having to leave Wednesday's contest, Andersen was on the ice at today's morning skate.
In front of Raanta, Jaccob Slavin (lower-body injury) took part in morning skate after missing the team's last two games, however, he is doubtful to play tonight.
"We're not in a situation where we've got to rush guys back," Rod Brind'Amour remarked. Tonight would be Slavin's third game missed since suffering the injury last Thursday in the team's win over Minnesota.
