Goalie Matchup:

Canes – Nedeljkovic

Blue Jackets – Korpisalo

Score Prediction

I think the Canes bounce back in a big way tonight. They’ll clean up their special teams miscues from Tuesday and put some behind Korpisalo on the power play tonight. Expect a big night from the Sebastian Aho line with Nedeljkovic holding down the fort in net.

Question for CC Readers: Do the Canes respond tonight after the loss to Detroit Tuesday?
