The Vancouver Canucks and Carolina Hurricanes didn't have much in common entering the season. Now in the second week of the schedule, they've both experienced similar doses of successes and failures.
The Vancouver Canucks begin a six-game Eastern Conference road trip on Thursday night against the reigning Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh, North Carolina. Vancouver enters the contest alternating wins and losses following a 3-2 defeat to the Vegas Golden Knights, while Carolina holds a 2-1-1 record after winning two straight road matchups.
Canucks forward Paul Cotter and Carolina forward Sebastian Aho lead their respective teams with four goals each entering the clash. Vancouver continues adjusting under first-year coach Manny Malhotra, while the Hurricanes aim to avoid a third consecutive home loss to open the season.
