Chicago is in bounce back mode after a 4-0 loss at Tampa Bay. They are in luck facing a Carolina team that is 10-19-2 on the road. The Hurricanes are on a 10-23-2 run on the road and 16-35 away against a team with a winning home record. Chicago adds depth and talent with veterans Antoine Vermette and Kimmo Timonen making their debuts with the Blackhawks tonight after recent trades. While the Blackhawks have been active buyers prior to Monday's trade deadline, the Hurricanes have already unloaded forward Jiri Tlusty and defensemen Andrej Sekera and Tim Gleason. Carolina is 26th in the NHL in goals scored and 14th in goals allowed. The Blackhawks are 81-36 at home and 41-10 against a team with a winning percentage below .400. And when these teams clash, the home team is 5-1 in the last six meetings. Play Chicago.
