Blues vs Hurricanes Prediction

The Hurricanes have had a hiccup here and there over the last few weeks, but they’re still one of the best teams in the league and a side you can usually trust against lesser competition. The Blues are one of those below average teams, and they’ve been getting beaten over the head defensively during this losing stretch. The Blues have allowed 4 or more goals in 6 of their last 9 games. Not ideal with the Canes coming to town. The Hurricanes have scored 4 or more goals in 5 of the last 7 games against the Blues. This has a chance to get ugly for the home team. Give me the Hurricanes and the reasonable price.
