Carolina Hurricanes Form
Carolina are looking to carry on the form from their 6-2 win against Buffalo into this game but the Hurricanes have had a hard time of it in the past few weeks losing to Washington, Dallas, Seattle and Ottawa in 2 weeks making them lose footing in the race for top of the Metropolitan division.
Sebastian Aho is where the goals will come from leading the Goals, Assists and Points for the Hurricanes and that is where the main threat is for the Jets to contend with.

Carolina can also defend as they have the 2nd best record at goals against average per game with 2.26 and will look to keep that down with the great defense they have on show this season.
They also will hope to get their 10th Road win this season only losing 4 games away from home all year.
