“Nail-Biting Showdown: Will the Ice Ignite in Game 1 of Devils vs. Hurricanes?”

The Hurricanes get to host today’s game as they finished just ahead of the Devils in the standings. The team is 47-30-5, and did most of their damage at home this season with a 31-9-1 record. That doesn’t really bode well for New Jersey. What you have to like about the Hurricanes is their offense. They score 3.24 goals per game. Most of that success is because they are shooting the puck constantly. The team averages almost 32 shots per game, which is about seven more shots than their opponents get off in a game. Their defense isn’t great considering they don’t allow a ton of shots, because they give up 2.81 goals per game to opponents. Like the Devils, the Hurricanes also struggled to get much success over their last few games only winning once in the last five. I assume they will put Pyotr Kochetkov in the net for them today. Kochetkov had an okay season with a 27-16-3 record and allowing 2.60 goals per game. His save percentage is just .898 as well. He is 19-4 at home, allowing 2.30 goals against.
