Carolina's goaltending carousel continues on Thursday as it is Frederik Andersen's turn at the Hurricanes' crease as he looks for his eighth straight victory and second straight shutout. The 34-year-old's last loss came on November 2nd after he missed time due to blood clots and has played sensational since returning with his 11-1-0 record, 1.86 GAA and .930 SV%. He will host the Boston Bruins on Thursday, who have won their last two games and are third in the NHL in points with 103 on the season.

The Canadiens have won four of their last five and will roll with Primeau in the crease for the third time in the last five games. Primeau has been excellent lately, allowing one or fewer goals in three of his last four (3-1-0), including saving 29 of 30 shots (.967 SV%) in his last outing, a 4-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers.

Tyson Jost will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday, allowing Robinson to re-enter the lineup. The 28-year-old Robinson has 10 points (3G / 7A) in 44 games with the Sabres this season.

Carrier has missed Vegas' previous two games and will remain out on Tuesday vs. Vancouver as he is still considered day-to-day. The 29-year-old's production has been down this season as he only has six goals and eight points in 39 games played after posting a career-high with 25 points in 56 games a season ago.

Walker was limited to only 11:15 time-on-ice in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Nashville Predators before exiting the game with an upper-body injury but will likely return to the lineup on Monday. In 10 games with Colorado, Walker has four points (3G / 1A).

Robinson will take a seat on Friday in order to make way for the return of Tyson Jost (knee). Robinson has three goals and seven assists in 44 games this season.

Fast has missed the Hurricanes' previous five games due to injury but is "probable" to suit up on Saturday vs. Montreal according to head coach Rod Brind'Amour. The 32-year-old has been enjoying a solid season in his usual bottom-six role with six goals, 18 points, 70 SOG and 14 PIMs in 66 GP and 12:46 TOI per game.

Carolina will continue to flip-flop their goaltenders as Frederik Andersen takes the crease on Thursday vs. Detroit after backing up the last contest. The 34-year-old missed a large chunk of the season due to blood clots but is in the midst of a six-game winning streak and holds an incredibly impressive 10-1-0 record with a 2.05 GAA and .925 SV% on the year. He will host the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday, who are in the midst of a playoff battle for the final Wild Card spot but have lost two straight and are 25th in the NHL in shots per game (28.6).

The Canadiens are riding a rare two-game winning streak, outscoring their opposition 7-2, and will turn to Primeau in net for the second time in the last three games. Primeau has allowed one or fewer goals in two of his last three starts (2-1-0), including saving 36 of 37 shots (.973 SV%) in his last outing, a 5-1 win over the Seattle Kraken. The Canadiens enter action as +138 home favourites against the Philadelphia Flyers.

Carrier was a late scratch on Tuesday with the team not announcing his absence prior to warmups. Paul Cotter will play in his place.

Carolina's goaltending carousel will continue Tuesday as Pyotr Kochetkov will take over the Hurricane's crease, looking for his third win in his last four starts. The 24-year-old has a near identical stat line to last season with his impressive .909 SV%, 2.46 GAA and 19-12-4 record. He draws a favourable matchup at home on Tuesday vs. Pittsburgh, who have lost three straight and eight of their last 10 games.

Carolina's goaltending carousel is expected to continue Tuesday as Pyotr Kochetkov is expected to take over the Hurricane's crease as he looks for his third win in his last four starts. The 24-year-old has a near identical stat line to last season with his impressive .909 SV%, 2.46 GAA and 19-12-4 record. He draws a favourable matchup at home on Tuesday vs. Pittsburgh, who has lost three straight and eight of their last 10 games.

The Hurricanes have rotated between Kochetkov and Freddie Andersen since the latter returned from his injury, and that trend will continue in Washington on Friday. Kochetkov was outstanding in his last start, allowing just a single goal on 31 shots as the Hurricanes secured a 4-1 victory on Long Island. The 24-year-old netminder has been on a tear of late, posting a .939 SV% and a 7-4-0 record over his last 11 appearances. He's got a great chance of staying in the win column on Friday night with the Hurricanes being -200 favourites in Washington.
