There is a huge difference offensively as of late as Carolina is scoring four goals in their previous four games while Detroit is averaging 2.33 goals in their last three games.The ability to win on faceoffs as there is a huge difference there as well as the Hurricanes are 5th in the sport with a 53% faceoff win percentage while the Red Wings are 25th in the entire NHL .
With a rival game at Minnesota tomorrow, I think the home side could get caught looking ahead here. Carolina is a very good road team with a sizzling 10-3 record and I think they offer great value here today to extend that superb record.
