Canes are facing the Tampa Bay Lightning on Friday at 7 p.m. The two teams were supposed to play again Saturday in Florida, but Hurricane Milton postponed that game. Carolina has been sharing their practice facility after the Lightning left Florida early to avoid the storm.
Canes will play two games at home before going on the road during the state fair.
The team hopes to clinch another Stanley Cup this season following last year's second-round playoff defeat.
