Looking for their third win in a row, the Carolina Hurricanes are in Minnesota to face the Wild today. Here’s the pre-game report.

According to Jessi Pierce, here are the projected lineups for today:

CAROLINA

Andrei Svechnikov - Sebastian Aho - Teuvo Teravainen
Ryan Dzingel - Jordan Staal - Warren Foegele
Nino Niederreiter - Lucas Wallmark - Martin Necas
Brock McGinn - Erik Haula - Jordan Martinook

Jaccob Slavin - Dougie Hamilton
Joel Edmundson - Brett Pesce
Jake Gardiner - Haydn Fleury

Petr Mrazek
James Reimer


MINNESOTA

Jason Zucker - Eric Staal - Mats Zuccarello
Zach Parise - Mikko Koivu - Kevin Fiala
Jordan Greenway - Joel Eriksson Ek - Luke Kunin
Ryan Donato - Victor Rask - Ryan Hartman

Ryan Suter - Jared Spurgeon
Jonas Brodin - Matt Dumba
Carson Soucy - Brad Hunt

Devan Dubnyk
Alex Stalock


With Jordan Martinook having re-joined the lineup, he’ll be on the fourth line with Erik Haula and Brock McGinn. Lucas Wallmark remains the third-line center with Nino Niederreiter and Martin Necas on the wings, while Warren Foegele and Ryan Dzingel remain in the top-six. Haydn Fleury is in for Trevor van Riemsdyk once again, while Petr Mrazek is likely to start his third game in a row.

Though the Wild have struggled, they’ve certainly performed in their own rink. Minnesota has a 4-1-1 record at home, despite a 3-10-0 record on the road. Marcus Foligno and Greg Pateryn are both out with injuries, while Devan Dubnyk is expected to start.

Puck drop is at 2 p.m.
