New Jersey Devils Form

New Jersey head back to Carolina knowing that their season will be over if they lose one more game in this series.

The Devils found themselves in trouble early on in the series as they lost back-to-back games on the road.

They were beaten 4-1 and 3-1 by the Hurricanes, but rebounded in their opening home game of the series, winning 3-2 in overtime.

New Jersey were unable to back that up though, with a 5-2 defeat leaving them staring elimination in the face.

The Devils booked their place in the playoffs by compiling a 42-33-7 record to finish third in the Metropolitan Division standings.

Carolina Hurricanes Form

Carolina head back home having given themselves the opportunity to wrap up the series on Tuesday night.

The Hurricanes hosted the first two games of the series and avoided any early slip-ups with 4-1 and 3-1 victories over New Jersey.

They failed to make it three-in-a-row as they were beaten 3-2 in overtime in New Jersey, but they issued an immediate response.

Carolina won 5-2 in the fourth game of this series, and that means they are on the brink of the next round.

The Hurricanes secured their spot in the playoffs by compiling a 47-30-5 record to claim second place in the Metropolitan Division.

Verdict

Carolina got back on track with a dominant road win, and we expect them to follow that up.

They have out-scored the Devils 7-2 at home in this series and have now won each of the last five meetings at the Lenovo Center.
