Boston at Carolina

I’m not sure many expected this Hurricanes’ team to go up 3-1 in the series vs. the Bruins, and they now get their first attempt to close out the series at home up three games to two. The Hurricanes have really been pouring it on at home as they are on a 16-2 home-ice run. That also shows them as being 17-1 if they were to be getting +1.5 goals on home ice in their last 18 - certainly showing some value on the puckline as they have already outscored the Bruins 7-3 in the two games played here. I certainly respect the Bruins, but even over their last 10 regular season games, they were just 3-7 on the road, and this Carolina team is showing to be a lot more difficult than the Canadiens team the Bruins steamrolled. It’s hard to play against a team that has rolled at home over their last 18 home tilts, but out of respect for the Bruins, I'll opt for the value of the puckline on the Hurricanes.
