T.M. Selection Carolina Hurricanes.

I like the Carolina Hurricanes to beat the Calgary Flames in this game on Thursday. The Hurricanes have looked much better lately and have started to heat up again in their games winning 2 in a row. Both of those wins were impressive wins too as they only gave up 2 goals in each game and scored 10 goals total between the 2 games winning both by 2+ goals. The Hurricanes have actually looked good on the road too winning 2 of their previous 3 road games and winning both by 2+ goals and scored 4+ in both. The Flames looked really good in their games up to last week but they have lost 2 games in a row and I think they are entering a bit of a slump here. They just came back from a 4 game road trip too and I think that they are going to come out flat in this 1st game back at home from that trip. Their defense and goalkeeping has been bad in their games lately. They have given up 11 goals in their 3 most recent games giving up almost 4 goals in every one of those games. They did give up 3+ goals in all 3 of them too. I think that this is going to be a bad spot for the Flames to win here and I like the way the Hurricanes have been playing lately with their scoring and their defending. The Flames have started to cool off lately and the Hurricanes have been heating up in their previous games after just breaking out of their mini slump. I think the Hurricanes are going to get after them in this game, I like the Hurricanes to win this one.

T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Hurricanes.
