Carolina has only lost a single game on the year and that loss came at the hands of the streaky Blue Jackets. However, the Hurricanes are a team that should be able to bounce back from the loss, but now the Hurricanes are playing in back to back games on the road. The first game is against the Kings, but the Kings have been very streaky at times this year and that could help them out, but still the Kings are a very physical team with a group of older veterans who should be able to give the Hurricanes a run for the money.

Erik Haula is the goal scorer for the Hurricanes with a total of 5 goals on the year. Andrei Svechnikov is the player who has been able to get 7 assist on the year for the team. Dougie Hamilton has managed to get a total of 8 points on the year.

Did the Sharks finally end up getting back to their winning ways? That is a good question and a couple of wins in the last 2 games for the Sharks may not really help the team in getting the real help that they need to bring home the wins they should be getting. The downside is the Sharks have really had some issues on the year in scoring and that has shown up with the losses on the year the Sharks had earliy this year.

Brent Burns is the leading goal scorer for the Sharks with 2 goals on the year. Logan Couture is the Sharks player who has been able to get 5 assist on the year and he has ended up getting a total of 6 points this year.

The Hurricanes are coming into this game after playing in back to back games. However, the Sharks are also going to have a strong Hurricanes team that has been able to score and play defense. The main difference in this game could be the fact that the Sharks are playing at home and had Tuesday off to rest up after getting their two wins in games they had to push really hard in the game. Final Score Prediction, San Jose Sharks win 3-1.
