The Islanders have recalled goaltender Peter Mannino and forwards Joel Rechlicz and Mike Iggulden for tonights game. Mannino got his first NHL career start last Sunday stoping 40 shots in which only two got by him. The Islanders who have gone 2-1-1 on this six game road trip so far hope to finish it with back to back wins tonight and tomorrow up in Ottawa where they face former Islanders mike Comrie and Chris Campolie. The Hurricanes who are coming off a 4-2 win over the Devils last Wednesday night at home in Carolina. The Canes who are looking to keep in the playoff race as they barley hold on in 8th place with Florida nipping at their heels with 80 points.
