Tampa Bay Lightning (0-0) at Carolina Hurricanes (0-0)

Hockey is back in Raleigh.

The Carolina Hurricanes open up their four-game preseason slate Tuesday night in PNC Arena, playing host to the team that knocked them out of last year’s postseason, the Tampa Bay Lightning.

“It’s the first game,” said head coach Rod Brind’Amour. “We can get a feel now for certain players and what they are picking up. We’ve got to get going.”

It’ll be the Canes’ first true preseason game in almost two years, as the last time Carolina played in the preseason was back on Sept.
