The Carolina Hurricanes are in a major rut when it comes to the man advantage. After a hot start to the year, the Canes' power play has fallen to 17th in the league with only a 21% success rate. The power play had been winning the team games and now, it's teetering on costing them points.

Jesperi Kotkaniemi (3g) has goals in back-to-back games. Martin Necas (2a) has points in back-to-back games. Frederik Andersen is one win away from 300 career wins and would become the second fastest netminder to that milestone.
