Faulk will miss his fourth straight game with a leg injury. The Hurricanes said they’re being smart with Faulk’s injury, so he will not travel to Ottawa for Thursday’s game. He remains close to returning, but it won’t come until Friday at the earliest when the Hurricanes return home to play the Sharks.
Hurricanes head coach Bill Peters said that Faulk is getting close, but will not play on Tuesday. He is expected to practice again on Wednesday and could be back in the lineup on Thursday in Ottawa.
The Blues are done until after the All-Star break so they’ve sent Binnington down to play with Chicago until after the break. If Jake Allen isn’t ready to go immediately following the break, then Binnington will likely be called back up.
