T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes - ML

I like the Carolina Hurricanes to win this game against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. Second games on a back to back are always difficult, especially when you have to travel quite a distance. Although Pittsburgh is a solid team, they will be playing Casey DeSmith, who hasn't been very good, in net for this game. DeSmith started the game against the Canucks, but lasted just over seven minutes while allowing three goals on five shots. The Hurricanes still lead the Metropolitan Division, and look for their second straight win here on their home ice. Expect a masterclass from the red and white here on Saturday evening.

T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Hurricanes.

Line: -170
