South Raleigh News

The Carolina Hurricanes are set to face the Nashville Predators at Lenovo Center in Raleigh, North Carolina. The game is scheduled for Tuesday, March 25, with puck drop at 7:00 p.m. ET. Fans can watch the game on FanDuel Sports Network South or listen via 99.9 The Fan and the Hurricanes App.

Currently holding a record of 43-23-4, the Hurricanes stand second in the Metropolitan Division with 90 points. Their last outing was a successful one, securing a 5-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday, March 23. In contrast, the Predators have had a challenging season with a record of 26-36-8 and are seventh in the Central Division after their recent loss to the St. Louis Blues.

In their previous meeting against Nashville, the Hurricanes suffered a defeat despite making a late push. Taylor Hall was instrumental in their recent win against Anaheim, scoring all three goals in the third period for his first hat trick as part of the team.

Mark Jankowski has been an asset since joining from Nashville for a fifth-round pick in 2025; he has scored six goals in seven games for Carolina. The team's performance at home has been strong this season with a record of 27-7-1.

Frederik Andersen's performance on Sunday marked his fifth consecutive win; however, Pyotr Kochetkov is expected to start tonight's game following Andersen's efforts over the weekend.

The Predators' season hasn't met expectations; they arrive in Raleigh having won only once in their last six games and struggling significantly on road trips this year.

Brady Skjei returns to Raleigh after signing with Nashville last summer but has seen his point production decline compared to his previous season with Carolina.

Andrei Svechnikov remains day-to-day due to an upper-body injury sustained earlier this month while William Carrier continues recovery from a lower-body injury incurred in January. Jesper Fast will not return this season due to an earlier ruling out.

Following Tuesday's match-up against Nashville, Carolina will practice before taking on Montreal Canadiens later this week on Friday night at Lenovo Center again wearing red uniforms as part of their
