Ottawa is getting good line value in this matchup as it looks to avenge a 5-4 loss to Carolina on Jan. 6 in the only meeting of the season so far. The Senators have won three of their last four following Wednesday's 5-2 home victory over Colorado. Matt Duchene had two goals and an assist and Anders Nilsson had 30 saves. Carolina had a bad loss at the New York Rangers losing 6-2 on Tuesday and goalie Curtis McElhinney was the loser and then he was held out of practice on Thursday due to a lower-body injury. Petr Mrazek will probably be in net tonight for the Hurricanes and he has a 2.67 goals-against average and .901 save percentage. He gave up three goals his last start against Nashville. Carolina is 5-11 its last 16 games against an opponent that scored at least five goals its previous game. Take the Senators.
