The Carolina Hurricanes will welcome the Winnipeg Jets to PNC Arena for an NHL game on Tuesday. The Carolina Hurricanes lost 3-0 in their last game over the Devils. Pyotr Kochetkov made 20 saves for the Hurricanes, who were coming off a 4-0 loss to Vegas on Saturday. The consecutive shutout losses were the first for Carolina since January 2014. The Hurricanes are scoreless in their last eight periods.
Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour said he would be more worried about the recent lack of scoring if his team was not getting chances. They tallied 15 goals over three games before totaling only one in the last three. “It goes like that sometimes,” he said. “And obviously right now we’re in a little stretch where we haven’t been able to find the net.” Carolina was it’s own worst enemy in this one, as two of New Jersey’s goals came on giveaways.
New Jersey and Carolina both have 94 points. The Devils have 15 games left in the regular season, one fewer than the Hurricanes. “This group is really good group,” Vanecek said. “We’re really playing well. The defensemen are really good, the forwards are scoring goals, so the goalie have to make the saves to help them.”
The Winnipeg Jets on the other hand won 2-3 against the Lightning in their last game. Nino Niederreiter and Morgan Barron scored second-period goals, Connor Hellebuyck made 33 saves and the Winnipeg Jets held off the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-2 on Sunday night. Nate Schmidt scored in the first period and Hellebuyck stopped all 14 shots he faced in the third for the Jets, who improved to 8-3-0 in the second game of back-to-back sets. The Jets beat the Florida Panthers 5-4 in overtime on Saturday.
“It’s huge,” associate coach Scott Arniel said. “Two tough barns, especially the last couple of years with how good Florida is. It’s a real desperate time for us; we have to keep pace with everyone in our division and conference. We knew it was going to be a tough trip, and it’s off to a great start.”
Hellebuyck stood tall in the third period, when the Lightning dominated play. “He’s the best in the world for a reason,” Barron said of the 2020 Vezina Trophy winner. “He’s able to do that. He just sticks to his process. We have full faith in him. He made some huge saves down the stretch tonight.”
