Randy’s Free Pick

The Carolina Hurricanes continue to flex their muscle as one of the better teams in the league, and they usually don't lose games they're not supposed to. This is one of those spots. The Arizona Coyotes don't have the defense to hang with the Coyotes and while they've had recent success at home, they're not a profitable team overall dating back to last season. Give me the Canes and the PL for max betting value.

Randy’s Pick Carolina Hurricanes -1.5
