New York comes into this matchup on a three game winning streak and they finally have some momentum after a rough start to the season. The Rangers are 0-4-1 at home this year, while the Hurricanes are 4-3-0 on the road. Carolina has lost three of their last four games and they have one of the worst power plays in the NHL right now. I do think Carolina is the better overall team, but New York has finally found some offense and much needed confidence. Take the Rangers to win here.
