Carolina Hurricanes News

The Hurricanes have rotated netminders since Andersen returned from an injury and will likely continue that trend on Tuesday against the New York Rangers, turning to Andersen between the pipes. Andersen struggled in his most recent outing, allowing four goals on 22 shots (.818 SV%), but salvaged a 7-4 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 35-year-old Andersen has a 2.15 GAA and .912 SV% in six games this season (5-1-0). The Hurricanes enter Tuesday's contest as -130 road favorites against a Rangers team they defeated 3-1 on December 22nd.

Roslovic is battling an illness and could miss his first game of the season on Tuesday against the New York Rangers. The 27-year-old Roslovic has 26 points (18G / 8A) in 50 games this season. In recent games, Roslovic has been playing on Carolina's fourth line.

Hall goes from the basement dwelling Blackhawks to what's now become one of the most exciting teams in the NHL in the Hurricanes. It's a welcomed fresh start for Hall, who ultimately struggled to stay healthy and productive during his tenure in Chicago. The former Hart Trophy winner tallied 11 goals and 17 assists in 56 games across parts of two seasons with the Blackhawks.

Rantanen is in the final year of a six-year, $9.25M AAV deal and is seeking a massive new contract in the summer. Rantanen has tallied 25 goals and 39 assists (64 points) in 49 games this season, putting him on-pace for 42 goals and 65 assists (107 points). It would be the third consecutive 100-plus point season for the 28-year-old, who will likely slide onto the Hurricanes' top-line next to fellow countryman Sebastian Aho.

Hall was a surprise scratch on Friday with the team not announcing his absence prior to warmups. It's unclear at this point if he is dealing with an undisclosed injury or if he's simply a healthy scratch.

Carrier has not played since January 4th, missing 10 straight, and will continue to be sidelined month-to-month. The 30-year-old Carrier was averaging 11:37 time-on-ice, recording nine points (4G / 5A) and 136 hits in 39 games before his injury.

Gostisbehere was not at the Hurricanes' morning skate on Thursday, attending to personal matters, but is ready to play in the evening against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The 31-year-old Gostisbehere continues to quarterback the top powerplay unit in Carolina and has 28 points (6G / 22A) in 40 games this season. That said, his productivity has dipped significantly, with only three points (0G / 3A) in his last 12 games after being nearly a point-per-game player with 25 points (6G / 19A) in his previous 27.

The Hurricanes have won three straight and will turn to Andersen between the pipes on Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Andersen was serviceable in his return from a multi-week absence, saving 22 of 25 shots (.880 SV%) in a 4-3 overtime win against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 35-year-old netminder has a 1.78 GAA and .929 SV% in five games this season (4-1-0). The Hurricanes enter Thursday's contest as -380 home favorites against a Blue Jackets squad coming off a dominant 5-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs last night.

Stillman was signed by the Hurricanes in the offseason but has yet to play a game in the 2024-25 season.

He has five points (2G / 3A) in 15 games with the Chicago Wolves (AHL) this season.

Andersen is set to make his first appearance since October 26th after missing just under three months with a knee injury. It's just the fifth start of the season for the 35-year-old netminder. Andersen was off to a fantastic start before suffering the knee injury, posting a 3-1-0 record and a .941 SV%. He's got a great chance of picking up right where he left off on Monday as the Hurricanes enter action at -330 on the money line.

Smith is an offensive-minded defenseman that has had trouble solidifying himself in the NHL since being drafted 17th overall in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. The 24-year-old has two points (1G / 1A) in eight games with the Hurricanes this season.
