Projected Lineup: ECF Game 5 vs. FLA | Carolina Hurricanes

RALEIGH, N.C. – Frederik Andersen will try to replicate his latest perfect performance as he backstops the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 5 against the Florida Panthers on Wednesday.

The veteran goalie stopped all 20 shots faced on Monday at Amerant Bank Arena, joining Cam Ward (4), Petr Mrazek (2) and Kevin Weekes (2) as the fourth goaltender in franchise history with multiple playoff shutouts.

In front of him, the Canes will once again be without Jalen Chatfield and Sean Walker (undisclosed injuries), though. Alexander Nikishin, who earned his first NHL point on Monday, and Scott Morrow will remain in their places.
