The Canes rank seventh in scoring and are tied for sixth in goals against. Their penalty kill is the second-best in the league, but their power play ranks 24th.

The Canes went 3-for-8 on the power play, and Jackson Blake was the first star with two goals. Carolina will look to continue its strong play while aiming to stay out of the penalty box.

The Red Wings are 4-5-1 in their last ten games and have a -23 goal differential. Their scoring has been trending down, leading to several close, low-scoring games. Detroit ranks 22nd in goals against and last in penalty killing, but its power play is third in the league, which can be an asset in tight matchups.

They nearly secured the win before allowing the tying goal in the final minute of regulation. Detroit was outshot 37-21 and went 3-for-3 on the penalty kill but struggled on the power play, going 0-for-3. The Red Wings will look to get their power play back on track in this matchup.

Best Bet: Detroit Moneyline

The Red Wings need this game more than the Hurricanes do. Detroit is on the outside looking in for the playoffs and is coming off a frustrating road loss to the Blues, where they should have secured the full two points. The Red Wings will look to capitalize on their power play, generate early scoring opportunities, and slow down the Hurricanes' offense from the start.
