Hurricanes' Ron Hainsey: Game-time decision against Blue Jackets

Hainsey will be a game-time decision due to an undisclosed ailment against Columbus on Tuesday.

Analysis:

Hainsey is bogged down in a 14-game goalless streak during which he has garnered a mere two helpers. Not exactly an offensive powerhouse, the blueliner's potential absence would certainly hurt the Canes in the defensive zone, where he eats up significant minutes -- 22:19 per night. If the veteran is unable to give it a go, look for Klas Dahlbeck to slot into the lineup.
