Carolina prefers to slow the pace down and had to play last night against the Flyers, getting just 25 shots and two goals. Carolina is #26 in goals scored, #21 on the power play. The last five times they've played the second of back-to-backs they were games with final scores of 3-1, 3-1, 4-1, 5-1, and 3-0, the latter being against this same New York Islanders squad. The Hurricanes are 21-7-1 UNDER the total against losing teams. The Islanders are on a 1-10 run scoring three goals or less in every game except one. The UNDER is 3-1-1 when these teams clash, and this total is too high. Play this game to stay UNDER the total.
