Consider these two NHL futures bets coming out of the All-Star break.

Theres just one game in the NHL on Friday night and its safe to say it wont be a ratings bonanza when the Hurricanes take on the Coyotes.

The Hurricanes are 2-2 amidst their ongoing homestand ahead of Fridays puck drop against the Red Wings.

For the first time in a couple of seasons the race for the Presidents Trophy given to the team with the best regular-season record in the NHL is wide open.

Opening with a 6-1 loss to the Hurricanes, the team on their heels in the Metropolitan Division, the Rangers suffered their fifth defeat by four or more goals this season Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.

Tuesday's defeat dropped the Rangers into second place overall in the NHL, but more of the moment is that Carolina has moved within five points of the Metro Division leaders off a 7-1-3 run.
