Overview
- Dallas snapped a four-game skid with a 3-2 win on Oct. 25, leaving Carolina 4-2-0 on the six-game swing and 6-2-0 overall.
- Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said Eric Robinson (upper body) and William Carrier (lower body) are expected to be out for an extended period after leaving the Colorado game.
- Carolina recalled top prospect Bradly Nadeau from AHL Chicago; he dressed in Dallas, saw first power-play time and narrowly missed his first NHL goal off the crossbar.
- The Hurricanes are also without Jaccob Slavin and Shayne Gostisbehere, who is on injured reserve retroactive to Oct. 18, with K'Andre Miller's timeline still uncertain.
- Earlier call-ups Charles Alexis Legault and Joel Nystrom continued to cover minutes, and Brandon Bussi started in goal after Frederik Andersen’s 44-save workload in Denver.
