Carolina Hurricanes Notes:

Carolina has only played two games this season, losing to Tampa 4-1 last week, and then defeating New Jersey 4-2 on Tuesday in their most recent contest. The low total is in part due to a postponement last week in a game against Tampa Bay.

Pittsburgh Penguins Notes:

The Penguins have scored an NHL-best 20 goals through their first five games of the season, and the team’s 4.00 goals-per-game average is tied for fourth in the league. Pittsburgh has 12 players on its roster who have scored this season, which is tied for the most unique goal scorers in the NHL.
