Tim Donnelly & Dennis Cox were joined by Jamie Hersh of the NHL Network to discuss the Carolina Hurricanes leading the New York Islanders 2-0 in their opening round series of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, including the depth of the Hurricanes, the addition of Jake Guentzel, and if the Hurricanes should stick with their rotation in goal with Frederik Andersen & Pyotr Kochetkov.

Yes. The potential for goalie injury is relatively high. It would be best to have whoever is next up frosty.
I disagree with Jamie Hirsch about the goalie situation. Freddy Andersen looked a bit tired in Game 2. Remember, he had that long lay-off due to the blood clot issue. His body may be fatigued with (relatively) more work after such a long absence. With the 'Canes up 2-0 in the series, I say put Kochetkov in goal for Game 3. If he falters and the 'Canes lose, then go back to Andersen for Game 4. Kochetkov was great in the last few weeks of the season, so he should share in the playoff games. Plus, he needs playoff experience for when he takes over as the #1 goalie by next season or the season after.
Game 2 was incredible.
Goalie situation is the ‘ol Canes norm, good but could go South down the stretch. 🤞🏽
We’ve got the guys this year to win the cup!!
Feels like we could of lost both games. Canes are the better team no doubt but its worrisome we're struggling with the Islanders.
The canes could put Roy in net and still win the series. Most rational Isles fans knew 2 years ago this team isn't a contender.
