DeAngelo's (wrist) X-rays came back negative and the blueliner is expected to be available for Game 1 against the Rangers in the second round of the playoffs, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports Wednesday.
DeAngelo has played in the last three games for the Canes due to Brett Pesce's (lower body) absence. DeAngelo will likely be relegated to the press box if and when Pesce is ready to return.
