GDT: Canes v. Devils 12/28 7:00

[andyt]

The back of an old fashioned home and home.

The Canes and Devils close the season series. In each of the first 3 games, the home team has won 4-2. Let’s hope that holds. It wouldn’t shock me to see Kochetkov back in goal. The Canes don’t play again until Tuesday, then they don’t play until Saturday.

The Devils could turn to Jake Allen in goal. He’s made 11 starts this season but hasn’t played since 12/19. They start a west coast roadie in Anaheim on Tuesday that also has them in LA on Wednesday followed by San Jose and Seattle before heading back east. So Keefe could opt to start Markstrom again tonight and let Allen go on Tuesday.

Red jerseys tonight. FanDuel for TV.

I gave my regular ticket to a friend, who needed an extra seat to take his wife and in-laws to tonight's game. I hate to admit it, but I'm really glad I'm not going.

Ty Smith was recalled from Chicago today and he’s taking warmups. Gostisbehere is out.

Smith hasn’t played an NHL game in nearly 2 years, last appearing 1/18/23, with the Pens.
