The Hurricanes picked up a 2-1 overtime win on Sunday over the Calgary Flames. They’ve won two of their last three after a skid. In their last ten games, they are 4-6-0 and are averaging 2.40 goals per game while allowing three goals per game.

Detroit Red Wings News & Notes:

The Red Wings have struggled as of late dropping four of their last six. They lost their last two games to the Columbus Blue Jackets. Detroit is 2-3-1 in their last six and are averaging 3.17 goals per game while allowing 4.33 goals per game. They need blue line help and another center. It’ll be interesting what Steve Yzerman does in the coming days.
