The Hurricanes will turn back to Kochetkov on Friday as the 24-year-old netminder is set to make a fifth consecutive start. Kochetkov will be eager for a shot at redemption after being saddled with the loss in Dallas on Tuesday, allowing three goals on 22 shots in the eventual 4-2 defeat. His start on Friday opens up the door for Spencer Martin to make his second appearance as a Hurricane when the team travels to Vegas on Saturday, though there is the outside chance the team opts to go to Kochetkov on back-to-back nights.
