Players To Watch:
Carolina Hurricanes
Martin Necas did not register a point in his last game, which ended a run of 13 straight games with a point. Necas was on the verge of tying the Canes’ longest-point streak in franchise history but missed the mark by one game. Necas leads the team in goals, assists, and points.
New Jersey Devils
This will be the first time Brett Pesce, who spent the first 10 years of his career in Carolina, will face off against his former club. Pesce had not yet made his season debut the last time the two clubs met, in Carolina, in mid-October. Jacob Markstrom will be making his 500th career start in net. Jack Hughes has seven points in the past five games.
