Ottawa Senators vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction and Odds on the Match on 18 April 2025

On April 18, 2025, the ice at the Canadiens Tire Centre in Ottawa will host another NHL regular season game for the 2024/25 season when the local Ottawa Wildcats host the Carolina Hurricanes.

Ottawa Senators

Ottawa's regular season has gone very well, and the Senators have finally solved their playoff problem. Over the past few years, the young team has been on the rise, but it is only now that they have reached the Cup Battles, where they will face another Canadian side—Toronto—in the first round.

The Redblacks have been on a roll since the end of the regular season. In their last seven games, they lost just once in regulation time and once in overtime and won the other five. This has helped them climb to sixth place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Carolina Hurricanes

Carolina has become a regular contender for the Cup, and this season is no exception. The representatives from Raleigh spent the regular season at an excellent level, thus solving the problem of getting into the playoffs early.

As the regular season draws to a close, the Hurricanes are already preparing for the start of the Cup campaign, and their recent results leave much to be desired. In their last seven games, they have only beaten the Rangers 7-3 and lost six times. That has not stopped them from sitting fourth in the Eastern Conference.
