November 1: Boston’s Projected Lineup Announced

On November 1, the Boston Bruins will face off against the Carolina Hurricanes at TD Garden. As the game approaches, the Hurricanes are watching the status of forward Seth Jarvis closely. He sustained an ankle injury during Thursday’s game against the New York Islanders and was unable to finish the match.

Game Day Decisions for Carolina Hurricanes

Seth Jarvis, a 23-year-old winger, will be a game-time decision. Head Coach Rod Brind’Amour expressed concern after Jarvis left the ice but has shown optimism about his potential to play after seeing him skate in street clothes during Friday’s optional practice.

Ultimately, Jarvis will participate in warmups, and a final decision on his playing status will be made afterward. If he cannot play, Domenick Fensore is likely to step in, which would shift the team’s lineup to 11 forwards and 7 defensemen.

Projected Lineup for November 1

Below is the projected lineup for the Carolina Hurricanes against the Bruins:

  • Forwards:
    • Ehlers – Aho – Jarvis
    • Hall – Stankoven – Blake
    • Svechnikov – Staal – Martinook
    • Kotkaniemi – Jankowski – Nadeau
  • Defense:
    • Nikishin – Walker
    • Chatfield – Nystrom
    • Reilly – Legault
  • Starting Goaltender: Frederik Andersen

Frederik Andersen’s Performance

Frederik Andersen is expected to be in goal. He has a strong record against the Bruins, boasting 16 wins in 22 career games. His save percentage in these encounters stands at an impressive .930. Following a recent victory against the Islanders, Andersen will aim to continue building on his 3-1 performance this season.
