New Jersey is 5-12-3 on the road with a bad offense - #27 in goals scored, and #29 on the power play. The defense has slipped badly this season, falling to #23 in goals allowed. It's a tough situational spot, off a win at home last night over Boston and now heading to rested Carolina. The Devils are 17-35 against the Eastern Conference, as well as a 16-35 run on the road. Rested Carolina is 11-3 at home with very good balance at #12 in goals allowed, and tops in penalty killing. Carolina is on a 10-1 run at home and hasn't played since Saturday. Back Carolina.
