SAN JOSE, CA - Goaltender Frederik Anderen is expected to be between the pipes as the Carolina Hurricanes take on the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday.
Andersen will look to continue his perfect 2-0 season after earning victories over the Ottawa Senators and Los Angeles Kings so far.
In front of "Zilla", the Canes will have a bit of a different look.
Making some in-game changes, Sebastian Aho and Jesperi Kotkaniemi were swapped on their lines, giving each other a new set of wingers.
Another in-game change was on the power play, and it led to immediate success. Martin Necas and Brent Burns were flip-flopped on their respective units, and Necas scored nearly immediately following the changes.
PP1: Aho, Bunting, Jarvis, and Necas with DeAngelo
PP2: Drury, Kotkaniemi, and Teravainen with Burns and Orlov
