The Hurricanes have made a nice 15-9 run as we head down the stretch of the NHL season. The difference has been finally going to and sticking with Cam Ward behind the net. He has recorded four shutouts during this stretch. The Caps had the invincibility factor working at home, as they opened the season on home ice at 18-2. What has happened since? They are just 7-9 in their last 16 played at home - a dramatic turnaround. Lately, they have also struggled to find the net as they have recorded just 12 goals in their last six games, or just two per game. The Hurricanes have been feasting on the Southeast division all season at 10-3 in their last 13. This is also their third game in four days and they have played 11 of those previous 13 to the UNDER. The Caps struggling and the Hurricanes finishing strong says go with Carolina here and the UNDER as well.
