Expert Betting Tips

• At least six goals were scored in five of the last eight games between these teams.
• In three of the last four meetings with Carolina, more than one goal has been scored in the first period.

We agree with the experts and consider Carolina to be the favorite. The Hurricanes look more powerful than Washington, plus they will play with the fans' support. They're certainly capable of scoring three points. However, the Capitals should not be ignored either - they will put up a fight and can even take the game to overtime. That's why we choose a non-win for the home team with at least five goals.
