The Carolina Hurricanes will play their 'first' game at the newly named Lenovo Center tonight as they take on the Florida Panthers.

This is as close to an opening night lineup as we get as the Canes are electing to play nearly all of their main roster players.

Carolina will only have four players who aren't expected to make the starting roster play tonight.

At this time, Florida has not released their roster for tonight's game.
