While New Englanders battle rain and floods, the Bruins will turn their attention to the Hurricanes. The Bruins's will travel south to Raleigh, NC to take on the Carolina Hurricanes tonight at 7:00 (NESN). The Bruins will try to end a two game skid after a 3-2 loss to New Jersey on Monday night. Meanwhile, the Hurricanes will be looking to bounce back from a 4-0 loss to Phoenix on Saturday. The Bruins are currently hanging on to the 8th playoff spot in the Eastern Conference with 72 points, but the B's can hear footsteps behind him as the Rangers are only 1 point back. The Hurricanes are a long shot to make the playoffs, but are still in the picture with 64 points. I would expect Tuukka Rask to get the start in goal tonight after the young Finnish goaltender looked solid in relief of Tim Thomas in Monday night's loss to the Devils.
