NEWARK, N.J. - Already armed with a 2-0 series lead, the Carolina Hurricanes are not expected to make any lineup changes on Friday as they face the New Jersey Devils for Game 3.
Frederik Andersen has been dynamite for Carolina to start the best-of-seven set, allowing just one goal in each of the first two games. Turning away 48 out of 50 shots faced, it will be the first time since the 2024 postseason that he'll be starting three consecutive contests.
In front of him, a goal and an assist in Game 2 now has Jordan Martinook leading the team with three points this series. Martinook ran roughshod over New Jersey in the 2023 playoff series between the two teams, recording 10 points in the Canes' five-game series win.
