Flyers vs Hurricanes Prediction 

Carolina comes into this matchup as one of the hottest teams in the NHL over the last two weeks, but they will be on the road here. The Hurricanes are 13-15-3 on the road this year, while the Flyers are 16-18-1 at home. Philadelphia snapped their losing streak with a shootout win over Tampa Bay in their last game, but they have scored two goals or fewer in four of their last five games. Carolina will be on a back-to-back for this game, but they are the much better team and already have two wins over the Flyers by scores of 6-4 and 4-1. I like Carolina to continue their strong play here and win by at least two goals.
