Hurricanes say Justin Faulk is out 2-4 with a sprained MCL.

This is a tough break for the Hurricanes, who have lost four games in a row. Faulk has three goals and seven assists in 29 games this season. There is just over five weeks left in the regular season, so Faulk will miss the rest of the Fantasy regular season.

Justin Faulk, one of the Canes’ best young stars, went down with a lower-body injury in the second period Tuesday.

Faulk did not return to the game and Canes coach Kirk Muller did not have an update on the injury after the game, but there were a lot of very somber looks in the locker room. Faulk has 10 points and a plus-3 in 28 games this season.

Defenseman Justin Faulk will not dress for the Carolina Hurricanes tonight, as they take on the Boston Bruins in the first game of a two-game homestand.

Schultz was on average a 14th round pick so wait to see if there is an update on his current DTD status. Pitkanen and McBain should be the beneficiaries of any missed time from Faulk.

Faulk, recalled Thursday from the Charlotte Checkers (AHL), will replace Derek Joslin, who will be a healthy scratch.

Faulk was compared to Jeff Skinner during training camp which is telling to how the organization views the youngster. Look for him to get some minutes at even strength and a look on the power play.

RALEIGH, NC – Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has reassigned defenseman Justin Faulk to the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League (AHL).

Faulk will be an NHL player but does nobody good by sitting on the bench. Safe to drop for now...

Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has recalled defenseman Justin Faulk from the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League (AHL). Faulk was assigned to Charlotte on Oct. 19, and played in three games with the Checkers during the weekend, notching a goal and earning an assist (2 points).

RALEIGH, NC – Jim Rutherford, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League’s Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has assigned defenseman Justin Faulk to the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League (AHL).

Faulk will go down to the AHL where he will actually get into games. Expect him to be one of the first callups should the team need a spare defender. However, with Derek Joslin already on the bench, he should stay with the Charlotte Checkers most of the season.

Joslin working with Faulk.

With Justin Faulk working with Derek Joslin, he could be a healthy scratch. Through his first three games, the young defenseman was held without a point and with a minus-6 rating. His demotion could pave the way for Jamie McBain or Ryan Murphy to enter the lineup.

Canes general manager Jim Rutherford was discussing personnel and roster decisions to be made today when a question was raised about Justin Faulk and whether Rutherford would consider him one of the team's top six defensemen. "No," Rutherford said, "in the top four."

Faulk seems likely to make the team out of camp if the above quotes are any indication. Last season, at the University of Minnesota-Deluth, he scored eight goals and 33 points over 39 games. Expect him to be eased into NHL play.

"I haven't seen any reason to think of him differently than a good NHL defenseman," Maurice said. "There's just hasn't been a hole (in his game). So I'm almost moving to the point that you start thinking of this guy in the same way you did about Jeff Skinner last year.
