The Hurricanes have a score to settle with this team. The Panthers knocked them out of the playoffs last year. The Panthers actually swept them in 4 games. So, the Hurricanes have been waiting for this one. Florida has been playing without its 2 best defensemen, Mountour and Ekblad. They will feel their losses tonight. Hurricanes are 22-11 last 33 when playing with 2 day's rest. A determined Carolina team will. improve on that record tonight. **NHL Road Warrior
