Ducks vs Hurricanes Prediction

The Ducks have some betting value at home with the rest advantage and the fact they’ve won four of the last five games against the Canes. However, the Hurricanes are in one of those grooves that’s hard to step in front of. The Hurricanes have won eight of their last nine games and have been rolling on both sides of the ice.

Yes, a 7-2 loss to the Kings yesterday was ugly, but it’s the Kings at home, who have been a tough out for everybody. The Canes have still been one of the best teams over these last two weeks and are going up against a Ducks’ defense that has trouble keeping the puck out of the net. Give me the Hurricanes and the PL for max betting value.
