The Carolina Hurricanes are still looking to make this losing games thing a thing of the past. Sure, they earned themselves a point against the Columbus Blue Jackets, but a loss in OT in a game where you once held a 3-1 lead has to sting. The Chicago Blackhawks might be just the soft target they need to get themselves back into the win column.
The Blackhawks are also looking to end a three game losing streak today. Both teams are 0-2-1 in their last three. With an early game today, they will be at a disadvantage of being the away team.
