Game Preview: Golden Knights at Hurricanes
James Guillory-USA TODAY SportsThe Hurricanes host the defending Stanley Cup champion Golden Knights tonight in PNC Arena.
Tonight’s matchup comes on the heels of Sunday’s shootout loss to the Capitals, marking two straight OT losses for Carolina (16-12-3). On the other end, Vegas (21-6-5) enters the night starting a four-game road trip in Raleigh.
The Canes will have their work cut out for them against the Golden Knights, who hold an impressive 6-1-1 record for the month of December. Carolina’s struggled in that same time span at 3-4-2, but the grueling two-week road trip earlier in the month gives cause to take that record with a grain of salt.
