Sharks vs Hurricanes Prediction

The season is still young and nothing should surprise you as we still feel these teams out. However, the Hurricanes are legit title contenders, while the Sharks are probably the worst team in hockey. Heck, not only are the Sharks bad, but they’re probably in tank mode all year based on some of the play in their game against Vegas. Again, it’s been over 100 days since the Sharks have won a game. I’m not backing the Sharks in this game. Give me the Canes and the PL for max betting value.
