Tkachuk has been a consistent offensive force for the Senators, frequently leading the team in shots. Against a Hurricanes team that allows a fair number of shots to opposing forwards, this line is appealing.

2. Sebastian Aho Anytime Goal Scorer

Aho has been a key contributor for the Hurricanes and is always a threat to find the back of the net. With Carolina needing a win, expect Aho to step up in this critical game.

3. Tim Stützle Over 0.5 Assists
