The Carolina Hurricanes will play their penultimate game of the regular season tonight against the Chicago Blackhawks (23-51-5).
Carolina is entering tonight's matchup having won their last four games and with still a chance to challenge the New York Rangers for the Presidents' Trophy.
However that chance requires the Hurricanes to win out starting with beating the Blackhawks, one of the NHL's worst teams this season.
Chicago has lost their last three in a row and are one of the worst offensive teams in the league.
They also have as many regulation losses as the Canes have total wins so if that tells you anything.
But it's the NHL and crazy things can happen when you have a talent like Connor Bedard on the ice.
