Hurricanes, after 9-goal explosion, take aim at Devils

The Carolina Hurricanes will be hard pressed to equal their latest goal output when they face the New Jersey Devils on Saturday in Newark, N.J.

It's a quick turnaround for the Hurricanes, who played a home game on Friday night. Nikolaj Ehlers scored a hat trick as Carolina cruised to a 9-1 win against the Florida Panthers, tying the franchise record for goals in a game since the club relocated from Hartford.

Carolina put up nine goals for the third time, matching a mark achieved twice in the 2008-09 season.
