#59/60 ASA PLAY ON 8* OVER 5.5 Goals (+120) - New Jersey Devils at Carolina Hurricanes, Friday at 8:10 PM ET - The Hurricanes won Game One by a count of 5 to 1 and could have scored even more. The Devils are sure to respond in Game Two but also have a goalie concern as Vanecek has struggled in the post-season and so they had been red-hot goalie Schmid so far. However, he was exposed by this strong Hurricanes team in Game One of this series and more is likely on the way in Game Two. This Canes team really brings it when on home ice and we expect a lot of scoring here because it is the only ways the Devils will answer now. They are unlikely to win a low-scoring grinder with the Hurricanes so they have to push and get more out of their attack. The Hurricanes have scored 11 goals in their last 3 home games. The Devils had averaged 3 goals per game last 5 games - 4 of them wins - before getting shellshocked in Game One. They will be better here but look for a back and forth game in which 4-3 would not be a surprise at all. Over is our play here.
