Status report
Bussi starting instead of Andersen is the only change expected in the Hurricanes lineup from a 2-1 loss at the Seattle Kraken on Monday. ... Kane, who along with DeBrusk was dropped to the fourth line in practice Tuesday, will be a game-time decision because of an illness; if Kane can't play, he likely would be replaced by Sasson, a forward. … Mancini was called up from Abbotsford of the American Hockey League on Tuesday and will replace Joseph, a defenseman expected to be out 2-3 weeks after leaving in the third period of a 6-1 loss to the Dallas Stars on Monday.
