KEY GAME INFORMATION
TAMPA BAY: LAST SEASON: 49-24-9, 107 points. Second in Central Division. Lost to San Jose Sharks in Western Conference finals.
COACH: Ken Hitchcock, sixth season with Blues (224-103-36) , 20th season overall (757-453-88-106).
ADDED: F David Perron, G Carter Hutton.
LOST: C David Backes, F Troy Brouwer, G Brian Elliott, F Steve Ott.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Jake Allen. The Blues made the 26-year-old goalie their go-to guy in net after trading Brian Elliott to Calgary for a second-round draft pick. Allen went 26-15-3 with a 2.35 goals-against average, .920 save percentage and six shutouts in 47 games last season while splitting time with Elliott.
OUTLOOK: The Blues lost veteran forwards David Backes and Troy Brouwer in free agency but return plenty of firepower offensively, led by Vladimir Tarasenko, Alexander Steen and Paul Stastny. St. Louis still has one of the deepest groups of defenseman in the NHL with Alex Pietrangelo, now the team's captain, Jay Bouwmeester, Kevin Shattenkirk and youngster Colton Parayko.
CAROLINA: LAST SEASON: 35-31-16, 86 points. Sixth place in Metropolitan Division.
COACH: Bill Peters (third season, third NHL season).
ADDED: RW Lee Stempniak, RW Sebastian Aho, LW Teuvo Teravainen.
LOST: C Riley Nash, LW Nathan Gerbe, D James Wisniewski.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Teravainen. The Hurricanes were thrilled to pick him up over the summer in a trade with Chicago, and now that he's out of the shadow of Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane, they're counting on him to seize the opportunity to be a headliner. The 22-year-old has 17 goals and 27 assists in 115 career games.
OUTLOOK: Carolina is tired of hearing about its longest-in-the-East postseason drought, and might have the team to reach the playoffs for the first time since 2009. The Hurricanes will need Teravainen, Sebastian Aho and the rest of their young forwards to play beyond their ages ' like their inexperienced defensemen did a year ago ' if they want their season to finally extend past mid-April.
PREVIEW
Hurricanes hope home cookin' helps vs. Lightning

RALEIGH, N.C. -- The Carolina Hurricanes are in need of something more than just encouraging performances, especially after a series of disturbing results.

For the most part, the same applies to the Tampa Bay Lightning.

The Hurricanes failed to win on a three-game road trip, so they return to PNC Arena for Sunday's game against the Lightning in a bit of a surly mood.

"At this point, we're sort of beyond the moral victories," Hurricanes forward Lee Stempniak said. "I think we need to start producing wins."

Tampa Bay snapped a four-game losing streak, but it took a shootout to do it Saturday night against the Washington Capitals.

Both teams had games Saturday, so whichever side makes the quickest recovery is bound to be in the best position for this encounter.

The Hurricanes played an afternoon game in New York and ended up with a 4-2 loss to the Rangers, while Tampa Bay was at home in a game that was extended to the shootout Saturday night.

Carolina has a five-game home-ice winning streak, so there could be something to build on from that perspective.

Tampa Bay doesn't want to waste a chance either.

"They're important points now, especially when you're going against teams in the East," Lightning goalie Ben Bishop said. "... You've got to find a way to get points."

The Hurricanes didn't produce strong finishes on their road trip and that's something that needs to be addressed along with the continued concerned about inconsistent offense. Carolina is the second-lowest scoring team in the Eastern Conference.

"You got to get hungry to score," Hurricanes coach Bill Peters said. "You can't just be content to play well. You need offensive contributions from your top six (forwards). That's the reality, especially when you have a few injuries and you need players to step up."

The Hurricanes figure to turn to goalie Cam Ward, who sat out Saturday's game. Last weekend, Carolina also split goalie duties, but Michael Leighton drew the home assignment then.

So this would make this Ward's first home outing since Nov. 20.

The last time the Hurricanes played at home a week ago, they lost center Jordan Staal to a concussion. He hasn't played since then and it's unlikely that he'll be activated for Sunday's game.

The matchup against Tampa Bay is Carolina's only home game during a six-game stretch. The Hurricanes are headed to the West Coast next.

Tampa Bay played Saturday night without right winger Ryan Callahan and defenseman Aaron Garrison, but Lightning coach Jon Cooper said there's no time to fret about the absence of injured players.

"Every position is getting tested," Cooper said. "You have to have depth in the organization and that has helped us in the past."

After the hectic weekend, the Lightning will have three days off. So the team will want to go into the break on the schedule with a positive vibe and part of that might come with how Tampa Bay begins the game in Raleigh.

"It's about being ready for the start," Bishop said. "We can talk about it all we want, but it's about going out and doing it."
