Several of the team's top players are expected to be in the lineup today, but a few others are making their final pitches to crack Monday's roster on Saturday.

The Canes' netminder was a year away from reaching free agency, but this two-year deal should keep him in Raleigh to work alongside Brandon Bussi.

Trailing 5-1 in the second, the Canes scored five unanswered goals, including the tying and winning goals in the final 90 seconds, to beat Nashville.

The final home game of the preseason features the Canes in their old stomping grounds, where the organization first settled before making Raleigh their home.

The all-rookie defenseman is looking for a new home, and while he has requested a trade out of Carolina, the Canes must find something that works for them.

Nadeau and Robidas scored their second goals of the preseason, and Primeau was perfect in relief to help the young Canes beat the Panthers, 3-2, on Tuesday.

The roster will see a few players make their preseason debut, but it still lacks most of the NHL roster as the Canes try to bounce back from Sunday's loss.

Despite good fight to erase a two-goal deficit in the second period, the Canes conceded four goals in the four goals in the stanza to fall 6-3 in Sunrise.

The first of four preseason games drops in Florida on Sunday night, with the Canes sending an AHL-heavy crew to face the Panthers to begin their home-and-home.

One of the best stories of the 2025-26 season, Bussi begins a three-year extension as the presumed starter of the Canes' tandem, which comes with expectations.
