There aren't any changes expected for Anaheim except Lukas Dostal getting his first start of the season.
After opening up their season against the Golden Knights in Vegas on Saturday, the Anaheim Ducks return home to faceoff against the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday.
It's a back-to-back for both teams, as the Hurricanes beat the Los Angeles Kings in a nine-round shootout on Saturday night.
Theoretically, a 65 minute game plus nine rounds of a shootout last night versus just the 60 minutes Anaheim played should give them a slight edge. This is a very strong Carolina team though that will push Anaheim to the limit.
There aren't any changes expected for Anaheim except Lukas Dostal getting his first start of the season.
Carolina will also swap goalies and it we'll have to wait and see who plays between Brendan Lemieux — who scored last night — and Jalen Chatfield.
Mason McTavish grabbed the Ducks' only goal on opening night as he looks to kickstart a breakout year.
