Carolina looks to avenge a 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks in the first meeting in October. The Canucks have lost two straight and four of their last six games and are playing their fifth road game in a row. Vancouver has managed a total of just two goals its last two games, including a 3-0 loss at Washington on Sunday. Jacob Markstrom made 26 saves for the Canucks, but his team failed to generate anything offensively as Braden Holtby recorded 20 saves for the Capitals. Vancouver is #28 in the league, scoring only 2.21 goals per game while allowing 2.93. The Hurricanes come home after a three-game trip and a 4-3 loss in San Jose. Cam Ward made 16 saves against the Sharks and he now has a 2.25 GAA and .917 save percentage. Goalie Ryan Miller is questionable tonight with an ankle injury for the Canucks. The home team has won 11 of the last 14 meetings and Carolina has won six home games in a row. Play the Hurricanes.
