Status report
The Hurricanes, who held an optional skate, will dress the same lineup from Game 2 on Monday. … There was no further update on Zub, who left in the second period of a 2-0 loss in Game 1 on Saturday; the defenseman did not take part in the Senators morning skate. … Kleven will return after missing the first two games of the series and the final seven games of the regular season because of a broken jaw; he will be on a pair with Crotty, who was a healthy scratch for Games 1 and 2. … Defensemen Gilbert and Thomson each will be a healthy scratch.
