Carolina is one of the leading contenders for the Stanley Cup. The Hurricanes have been putting up great results for a few years now, but they didn't have much Cup experience until recently. This season was controversial, as there were both bright victories and defeats, but gradually, they stabilized the situation. The team secured six wins in their last eight matches and lost only to the Rangers and Florida - 2-1 and 5-2. They are fifth in the Eastern Conference standings.
Philadelphia
Philadelphia has been one of the league's underdogs. There are no preconditions for a change, but the Flyers are doing well this season. In five games, they earned seven points out of ten. On the other hand, their run has ended, their results have deteriorated, and their chances of making the Cup Final Eight have diminished. In their last 11 encounters, John Tortorella's men have won just four times and failed seven times. Such poor playing has caused Philadelphia to slip to 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings.
Expect Betting Tips
Carolina has been phenomenal at home lately. The last time the Hurricanes lost on the ice at PNC Arena was in May when they fell to Florida in the playoffs. After that, they won all three preseason meetings. Now they've gone four games without a loss in the regular season. Not all their matches are fun and effective, but the team plays for the result and gets it. Philadelphia can't really stop this successful series.
Carolina is pragmatic and aims to keep their net empty, even if it comes at the expense of the attack. In just their last three home matches, the Hurricanes have scored and conceded 11 goals (3.67 on average). For John Tortorella, building defense is an important factor. On that basis, don't expect an eventful game.
