Money Line: -178.00 NY Islanders (Home)
Result: Loss
The Islanders are hot winning six of their last seven. They catch Carolina on the finale of a seven-game road trip that has lasted nearly two weeks.
The Hurricanes are 3-3 on the trip having defeated Detroit, 3-1, two nights ago. The Hurricanes are 7-23 following a victory.
The Hurricanes have had some success in Long Island, but this game is at Barclays Center. The Hurricanes return home on Friday to play Colorado. That's a game that is more winnable than this one so they could be pointing to that look-ahead matchup.
So Carolina may go with backup goalie Eddie Lack against the Islanders. Lack has a 3.94 goals against average in his last six starts versus the Islanders. Carolina also has failed to score during 18 of its last 19 power play opportunities.
