Curtis McElhinney Gets The Nod Thursday Night
6 years agoCarolina Hurricanes goaltender Curtis McElhinney will make his 31st start of the season on Thursday against Washington, looking for his 20th win. The much-traveled veteran has been in great form this season, putting together a 19-9-2 record with a 2.53 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage with two shutouts. He has won 11 of 17 starts on home ice. McElhinney beat the Canadiens 2-1 in overtime with a 28-save effort in his last start. It's a difficult matchup for McElhinney and the 'Canes, but only five visiting sides have won at the PNC Arena in 2019, so it's not exactly easy for the Caps either.
