“Jordan has really fit in well with our group and provides veteran leadership both on and off the ice,” said GM Don Waddell. “He skates with a relentless energy that epitomizes the way Coach Brind’Amour wants the Hurricanes to play.” The 26-year-old winger has 10 goals and three assists (13 points) in 50 games during his first season with the Hurricanes.
Gostisbehere was a late-scratch from Monday’s game against the Jets and has already been ruled out for Tuesday’s game in New York. Look for Ivan Provorov and Travis Sanheim to play huge minutes and eat-up the power-play time while Gostisbehere is out.
Gostisbehere was expected to be in the Flyers lineup on Monday but the team announced he would miss the game right at 7:00 pm. This is a tough break for them as the Flyers lack offensive talent on the back-end outside of Gostisbehere, Ivan Provorov and Travis Sanheim.
Gardiner missed Sunday’s game vs. the Coyotes but was on the ice for Wednesday’s morning skate but head coach Mike Babcock was non-committal on him playing tonight. If Gardiner doesn’t play, Travis Dermott will remain on the second power-play unit.

Kase was forced to leave Thursday’s game in Minnesota and is not expected to play on Saturday afternoon due to an upper-body injury. Kase has cooled off as of late, picking up just one assist in his last seven games but this would be a huge loss for a Ducks team trying to fight back into the playoff picture in the Western Conference.
