Carolina at Columbus

Carolina just beat Columbus 4-1 at home last night as Cam Ward made 35 saves. Hurricanes center Victor Rask, second on the team with 26 points, will play after sitting out Friday with an upper-body injury. The Hurricanes are 4-0 when playing on no days rest and have more road wins than Columbus has at home. Columbus ranks #21 in goals scored, last in the NHL in goals allowed (3.2 per game). The Blue Jackets will be without Nick Foligno, who took a hard hit last night. Columbus has a lot of changes taking place with defenseman Seth Jones aboard for his first home game. He was acquired in the blockbuster deal three days ago that sent Ryan Johansen to Nashville. The Blue Jackets are 6-14 in the second game of a home-and-home situation, plus 3-7 on no days of rest. Columbus has dropped its last three home games to Carolina, too. Take Carolina.
