New York Rangers vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction

The Hurricanes should be favored at home as they’re the better team playing the better hockey, and they’ve won 7 of the last 8 games against the Rangers. That includes a 3-0 win earlier this month. However, we’re getting plus money with the Rangers, the road warriors who have seen 9 of their 11 wins come on the road. We’ve cashed in these spots time and time again this season, and I’ll take a shot with them again as road dogs.
