Carolina Hurricanes vs Ottawa Senators Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 01/24/26

The Carolina Hurricanes are heading to Ottawa to face the Senators for the first time this season. The Hurricanes rank among the top three teams in shots per game on the road, averaging over 30 per game, which contributes to their strong goal-scoring ability. They also have a very effective power play, which will be advantageous tonight against a Senators team that ranks in the bottom third for penalty killing. Brandon Bussi is expected to start and has been outstanding, with an impressive 18-3-1 record, a 2.20 goals-against average (GAA), and a .906 save percentage (SV%).

While the Senators have a strong offense, they are hampered by mediocre goaltending from whoever is in net. James Reimer has been brought in to address these issues, but since joining the team, he has recorded a GAA of 3.02 and a SV% of .889. With Linus Ullmark still unavailable, Reimer will continue to start. Given the Senators’ poor penalty killing and the Hurricanes’ high-powered offense, things could deteriorate quickly. Expect the Hurricanes to win this one on the road.
