The Power Play:The Canes have had multiple games this series where they've scored multiple goals on the man advantage, but they've also had a pair of games where they've struggled. Tuesday was a strange one, scoring on the power play, but having it wiped off due to a successful challenge for offsides. Which version of Carolina's power play will show up tonight? Patience and trust have been key words linked to their success lately, with Brind'Amour encouraging the units to run their sets, and not just take the first opportunity to put it on net.
In Net:Starting all five games this series, it's looked as if Antti Raanta has become "the guy" for the team in net. However, Raanta hasn't started six games in a row since last year's playoffs and it culminated in an injury. Will the team stick with him because he has been successful and strong between the pipes, or is it time for Frederik Andersen's Canes playoff debut? Or could Pyotr Kochetkov factor into the recipe somehow? The team is not holding a morning skate, so an answer won't come until at least Noon when Brind'Amour meets with the media in New York.
