Hurricanes vs Flyers Prediction
In their previous meeting earlier this season, the Hurricanes won 4-3 at home in overtime and are 9-1 in their last 10 meetings against the Flyers. Under is 6-2 in their last 8 meetings.
In this Hurricanes vs Flyers Prediction, the Hurricanes are coming as -159 road favorites. The Hurricanes have been the better team this season and are 3-1 in their last 4 games. The Flyers have been very strong at home but have a weaker offense as both teams are very close in goals allowed. Philadelphia also has a better power play and penalty kill but I still cannot trust them at home against a team that has been dominating them in recent years. Both teams are 11-1 to the under in their last 12 games combined and the under is 7-3 in their last 10 meetings, so I expect a low-scoring affair today. Take the under 6 in this one.
