Brett Pesce Questionable For Game 3
7 months agoCarolina Hurricanes defenseman Brett Pesce (lower body) is questionable for Thursday's Game 3 of the team's first-round series against the New York Islanders. The veteran suffered a non-contact injury while attempting to join an offensive rush in the second period of Monday's Game 2 win. "We'll reassess," Hurricanes bench boss Rod Brind'Amour said on Tuesday. "We will find out more about Pesce today. So, I think we will wait and see for right now. Don't really want to jump the gun yet." The 29-year-old recorded three goals and 13 points in 70 games this season while adding 113 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating to his ledger. The Hurricanes stormed back to steal a 5-3 victory on Monday, increasing their series lead to 2-0 when the series switches to Long Island on Thursday.
