Vancouver has been impressive under their new coaching staff with a winning record both home and away. They have good balance across the board and come off a nice road win at Philly, 4-0. Ryan Miller returned from a two-game illness absence and made 29 saves, and Henrik Sedin had a goal and an assist. The Canucks are 16-7 against a team with a losing record and face a last place Carolina squad that is #29 in goals scored. The Hurricanes are 9-20 in their last 29 games. The Hurricanes couldn't get much going in the first meeting with Vancouver in a 4-1 loss Oct. 28. The Canucks are 4-1 in the last five meetings and Carolina is 24-50 against a team with a winning record. Play Vancouver.
