Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction

I’d lean toward the Hurricanes in this spot because they haven’t lost back to back gaems since the Titanic sank. However, I’m rolling with the soft line. The first three games of this series are averaging 8.3 goals, and six of the last nine games between them have produced at least seven goals. The Hurricanes and Golden Knights have scored three or more goals in nine of their last 10 games. These teams have been offensive explosions throughout the playoffs, and it hasn’t stopped in this series. Expect more fun and high scoring. Give me the over.
