Overall, Carolina has performed well in the last five games but still made one mistake. On January 23, the Hurricanes played on the road against New Jersey and lost by three goals. Now the team plays in front of its stands, where they won't leave any chances for their opponent. Carolina scored eight points in the other four games, enough to move into first place in the Metropolitan Division.

New Jersey has shown the exact opposite results compared to Carolina. They had one win in their last five games (over Carolina) and four defeats. Thus, they dropped to the penultimate spot in the standings with 35 points. The 20 points between them would bury their dreams of qualifying for the playoffs.

Carolina wants revenge for last week's defeat. New Jersey played in front of their stands and felt confident, but on the road, they looked terrible.
