Carolina Hurricanes News

Orlov has missed the last four games after being added to the COVID-19 protocol list a few weeks ago. Orlov was activated from the list and was on the ice for the Capitals morning skate, but skated on the "fourth pairing," which suggests he may miss another game on Saturday.

Martinook was activated on Friday and was on the ice for an optional practice, suggesting that he could be available for Saturday's home game vs. the Stars. Martinook should replace Max McCormick and take back his spot on the fourth line for Saturday's contest.

Roslovic did not have to go through the same visa issues as Patrik Laine or the same quarantine, since he never reported to Winnipeg. Roslovic, who had 29 points (12G / 17A) in 71 games last season, will centre a line with Cam Atkinson and Boone Jenner in his debut.

Andersen allowed two goals on 32 shots in the Maple Leafs win over the Oilers last Friday. Jack Campbell started Sunday but was hurt in the win over the Flames, so Andersen could become an even bigger workhorse for the nest few weeks. After a rough start to the season, Andersen has gone 2-1-0 while stopping 76 of 81 shots (.938 SV%) in his last three starts. Tonight he faces a Calgary team that Andersen was 0-1-1 with a 2.48 GAA and .911 SV% against last year.

Accompanying his trade back to his hometown is a fresh two-year deal for the previously unsigned RFA. Roslovic will have to undergo a mandatory 14-day quarantine following this trade but should make his Blue Jackets debut sometime in early-February.

Roslovic was an unsigned RFA who had made it clear he didn't want to be in Winnipeg anymore. This deal couldn't have been better for the 23-year-old, who is a native of Columbus, Ohio. The 2015 first-round pick (No.25 overall) registered 67 points (26G / 41A) in 180 career NHL games wth the Jets.

Orlov was among four Capitals added to the COVID-19 protocol list on Wednesday after it was determined they were in a hotel room together during the team's recent road trip. "Right now the players are in quarantine and, at this point, I believe it's four games and then under review and so we'll go from there," head coach Peter Laviolette said. In addition to Orlov, Alex Ovechkin, Evgeny Kuznetsov and Ilya Samsonov are all expected to be out as well.

Chatfield is expected to replace Olli Juolevi on the Canucks blueline on Wednesday. The 24-year-old defenseman, who had four assists in 48 AHL games a season ago, should help boost the Canucks penalty kill and is expected to skate on the second pair with Alex Edler.

The Hurricanes played in Nashville on Monday and had just one player n the COVID-19 protocol list and that was Jordan Staal. On Tuesday, their game with the Predators was cancelled due to four more players being added to that list, Slavin among them. The four players with confirmed positive tests must stay behind in Nashville and observe a 10-day isolation period in the team hotel.

Andersen stopped 27 of 28 shots in the Maple Leafs win over the Jets on Monday. After two tough starts to open the season, Andersen stood tall on Monday and earned his second win in three starts. Tonight he'll face an Oilers team that has struggled in their most recent outings, scoring just twice and going 0-for-10 on the power-play.

Stillman sat out of Sunday’s season opener but will replace Gustav Forsling in the lineup on Tuesday. Stillman had five assists in 34 games last season.

Kase was hurt in Saturday afternoon's game against the Devils and did not return to the game. With Kase out, Jack Studnicka will draw back into the lineup after sitting in the second game of the season.

Andersen allowed five goals on 24 shots in the Maple Leafs' 5-3 loss in Ottawa last Friday. It was a terrible outing for Andersen, who has now given up nine goals on 56 shots (.839 SV)% to open the season. After not even dressing for rest purposes on Saturday, the Maple Leafs will try to get Andersen going tonight vs. a Patrik Laine-less Jets team.
