Not only are the Hurricanes the superior team here, but they also have a huge scheduling edge. Carolina has been home for the last eight days and hasn't played since Sunday. The Hurricanes have won each of their previous two games, both at home, 1-0 in overtime against the Flames and 5-1 against the Jets. The well-rested Hurricanes are 8-3-1 at home this season. Toronto is playing well despite numerous injuries. The Maple Leafs are 3-1 in their last four games. They still have seven fewer points on the season than Carolina. While the Hurricanes have enjoyed three full days of rest, Toronto will be playing for the fourth time in seven days. The teams met on Nov. 9 in Toronto. The Hurricanes trailed by two goals in the third period, but scored three unanswered goals to pull out a 5-4 win. Take the Hurricanes.
