Projected Lineup: SCF, Game 4 at Vegas
Key Points:
- Carolina Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour did not disclose the starting goaltender for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final, keeping the decision a mystery until game time.
- Frederik Andersen, who has started all 16 postseason games, and rookie Brandon Bussi, who relieved Andersen in Game 3, are both possible starters for tonight.
- Jordan Staal aims to score in his fourth consecutive Stanley Cup Final game, a feat achieved by only three players in the expansion era since 1967-68.
- The Hurricanes' projected lineup features Staal centering Nikolaj Ehlers and Seth Jarvis, with Sebastian Aho centering Andrei Svechnikov and Jordan Martinook; William Carrier is back in practice after an injury.
- No injuries were reported, with four scratches listed, and special teams will see Staal take most faceoffs on the power play units.
