The Canes acquired forwards Mikko Rantanen and Taylor Hall in exchange for Martin Necas and Jack Drury. What - Game 50 (30-16-3) When - 7:30 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 25 Where - UBS Arena; Elmont, NY How to Watch - FanDuel Sports Network South, MSGSN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Carolina Hurricanes will take on the New York Islanders (19-20-7) tonight with what will be a very new looking lineup. The Canes made a huge splash last night [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/carolina-hurricanes/latest-news/carolina-hurricanes-pull-off-historic-blockbuster-trade-in-three-team-deal], landing both Mikko Rantanen and Taylor Hall for Martin Necas and Jack Drury in a three-team trade. It was a bold move by first year GM Eric Tulsky, but it's one that addresses a lot of the Hurricanes' concerns moving forward. Carolina is entering the contest on a four-game winning streak and have looked much more like the team we are familiar with. The Islanders have found a bit of a jump as of late too, having won three in a row heading into tonight's game. They're still at the bottom of the division, but they've gotten some steady goaltending and timely goals even despite historically bad special teams play. The Isles may even have a familiar face in the lineup as former Canes defenseman Tony DeAngelo was signed by New York just yesterday.
