The New Jersey Devils face the Carolina Hurricanes with both teams looking to build off strong starts to the season. The Devils have a 21-8-2 record but are looking to bounce back from five losses in a row. The Hurricanes have a 19 6 6 and with a five-game winning streak, can surpass the Devils in the division with a win against them. Both teams are looking to remain at the top of the Metropolitan Division and the Eastern Conference and the upcoming game looks to be a good one as a result.

The Devils have been carried by their offense all season, scoring 3.45 goals per game but recently, have seen the unit fall apart, scoring only four goals in the last three games. Jack Hughes, Jesper Bratt, and Nico Hischier have scored 39 goals and 56 assists to lead the top two lines but the rest of the offense has struggled. The hope is that Miles Wood and Erik Haula can step up as they play a pivotal role in the offense but have only added nine goals and 19 assists on the season so far.

The offense has struggled but the defense has stepped up, allowing only 2.48 goals per game. Jonas Seigenthaler and Ryan Graves have combined for 5.0 defensive point share and 108 blocked shots while Dougie Hamilton and John Marino have combined for 4.4 defensive point shares to give the Devils two great defensive pairings. In addition, goaltender Vitek Vanecek has stepped up in the net with a .912 save percentage and a 2.37 goals-against average on 489 shots.
