KEY GAME INFORMATION
COLUMBUS: LAST SEASON: 34-40-8, 76 points. Last in the Metropolitan Division, missed the playoffs.
COACH: John Tortorella, second year, 34-32-8
ADDED: C Sam Gagner, D Scott Harrington, LW Pierre-Luc Dubois.
LOST: RW Rene Bourque, RW Jared Boll, D Fedor Tyutin, D Justin Falk, LW Kerby Rychel.
PLAYER TO WATCH: LW Brandon Saad. Acquired in a trade with Chicago before last season, the 23-year-old Saad scored 31 goals and added 22 assists for 53 points, all career highs. He and center Boone Jenner were among the few bright spots in the team's dismal season last year. That pair, along with right wing Cam Atkinson will make a potent first line.
OUTLOOK: Columbus made no blockbuster deals in the off-season, meaning it is starting the season with the same group of players that made it one of the NHL's sad sacks last year. But team president John Davidson believes his players will perform up to their potential under Tortorella, who replaced Todd Richards after seven games last season. He's also ready to tap into the talented pool of players that helped the Lake Erie Monsters win the AHL's Calder Cup. A fully healthy Sergei Bobrovsky in the net will be a huge boost. Still, everything will have to click just right to get the Blue Jackets to the playoffs.
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 face Jackets with little margin for error

RALEIGH, N.C. -- The Carolina Hurricanes are a game away from a historic stretch, while the Columbus Blue Jackets are trying to return to the brisk pace it set earlier in the season.

The teams meet Thursday night at PNC Arena, with vastly different objectives.

The Hurricanes are riding a 12-game points streak (8-0-4), matching the franchise record set 11 seasons ago during the team's run to the Stanley Cup.

"The only way to win this time of the year is to have everybody contribute, and that's what's happening," Hurricanes coach Bill Peters said. "Guys have to do their role, exceed their roles."

To reach an Eastern Conference playoff spot, the Hurricanes (34-27-14) must pass three more teams and make up four points. With seven games remaining, Carolina is four points back of the Boston Bruins for the second wild card and has a game in hand.

"We're in the race here, but we don't want to look too far ahead," Carolina left winger Joakim Nordstrom said. "We want to keep our foot on the pedal."

With 23 points this month, Carolina already has the second-most productive month in franchise history. It is topped only by the January 2006 output of 26 points.

Columbus (49-19-7) has secured a playoff spot, but claiming the Metropolitan Division title remains a possibility. The Blue Jackets have 105 points and trail first-place Washington by five points.

Columbus has had troubles at the offensive end at times and that has drawn the attention of coach John Tortorella.

"Our top guys are struggling. We're just not consistent enough with our offense," Tortorella said. "The biggest concern for me is a lot of our top offensive guys just don't feel good with the puck."

If the Blue Jackets sputter on offense, Carolina could be a tough matchup considering the Hurricanes have allowed only one goal in three of their last four games.

However, the Blue Jackets are 9-0-1 in their last 10 games against Metropolitan Division opponents.

Tortorella said he wants to have line combinations in good order as the regular season winds down. He said that will be important next month.

"I don't want to keep moving these things around," Tortorella said. "Our problem is sustaining some offense. ... We just have to keep managing it. I don't want to turn something into panic."

Columbus has used goalie Sergei Bobrovsky in the last two matchups with Carolina, with each team winning once. Bobrovsky holds an NHL-leading 41 victories this season and owns a personal 12-game points streak (10-0-2).

Carolina's goalie situation is probably clearer now with Eddie Lack recovering from Monday night's brief hospitalization for what was determined to be a neck strain. He was back to watch Tuesday night's game but is likely out of action for at least another few days.

In the meantime, goalie Cam Ward will try to improve his 25-20-11 record.

Columbus right winger Oliver Bjorkstrand has been out a week with an upper-body injury, though he is listed as day-to-day.

The Hurricanes have been particularly strong late in games. During a 10-game stretch, they have outscored opponents by a cumulative 15-4 in third periods.

The home team has won each of the first three Columbus-Carolina meetings this season.
