Carolina at New Jersey

This is the second straight road game for Carolina and its seventh road game in 10 contests, which puts a lot of pressure on a bad defense ranked #24 in goals allowed, #28 in penalty killing. Carolina is on a 5-3-2 run OVER the total on the road, plus 5-2-3 OVER against a team with a losing record. They've converted eight of 17 power-play chances away from home this month. New Jersey is home and struggling on defense, allowing 15 goals the last five contests, winning only once. They are home from a three-game trip and the offense plays best at home. All of which makes this total too low. Play this one to finish OVER.
