Ward hasn't allowed more than three goals his last eight starts and he is 18-11-4 in his career versus Pittsburgh. Matt Murray owns a 2.86 GAA and .908 save percentage for the Penguins this season. Carolina has held the Penguins to a total of four goals in their three games, including a 4-0 shutout with Ward in goal on Jan. 4. Play the Hurricanes.
