The Columbus Blue Jackets and the Carolina Hurricanes meet for the third time this season with each team winning a game so far. The Hurricanes only have three wins out of eight tries in the month of December but are kept afloat by getting a point in five of those eight games. The Hurricanes are currently only four points back from a wild card spot with 33 points on the year.
The Blue Jackets and the Hurricanes are familiar with each other, so there should be no feeling out process in this tilt. The Blue Jackets do get an edge on the Hurricanes because the Canes played last night in Buffalo winning the game eventually in OT.
