RALEIGH, NC. - Jack Drury returns to the Carolina Hurricanes' lineup on Sunday when the team faces the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The forward has been out of the lineup since March 9 due to a lower-body injury, but pre-game Rod Brind'Amour said that he's good to draw back in.
Brendan Lemieux will come out to make room for him.
Behind the group of skaters, Frederik Andersen gets the start against his old club.
Andersen has been terrific since returning from a blood-clotting issue earlier this month, allowing just seven goals in five games played. With a .949 save percentage since March 7, no NHL goalie who has played in a minimum of five contests has produced a better number.
