There is no word as to what is ailing Pesce, but head coach Bill Peters said that Pesce will be a game-time decision tonight. If Pesce can't play, Ryan Murphy will replace him in the lineup.

Pesce suffered a lower-body injury last Tuesday and is not ready to go, so he’s been placed on IR. With Pesce still sidelined, the Hurricanes have recalled Ryan Murphy from Charlotte (AHL).
