The reeling Canes meet the reeling Jackets in a matinee.

The Canes got what they deserved against Ottawa on Friday, losing 3-0. The newly blended lines didn’t work, the Canes generated nothing. Would it be a shock to see Tokarski today?

The Jackets lost in OT at home to Anaheim last night, dropping them to 3-4-3 in their last 10. They’re last in the Metro, but just 1 point below NHL .500 with 29 points in 30 games. Kiril Marchenko leads with 11 goals, Zach Werenski has 21 assists to go with 10 goals, he’s the leading scorer. The Jackets have 21 goals from their blue line, most in the league. Werenski is also leading the league in TOI at over 26 minutes per game. Jet Greaves played last night, so we should see Elvis in goal today. He’s at 3.06/.888 in 19 games. The Jackets can score, 9th in the league in goals per game. But they allow a lot too, 30th in goals against. They’re 20th on the PP and 28th on the PK.

Black jerseys today. FanDuel for TV.
 
Yeah, halfway through a gut check homestand and going nowhere. And it's day game against freaking Columbus. Fun.
