(NHL) Carolina vs. NY Rangers,
Money Line: -113.00 Carolina (Away)
Result: Loss
This will be a great game between two evenly matched teams. The Rangers won the Presidents' Trophy but the Hurricanes were a better team in the second half of the season and look to take over this game from the first period. The Hurricanes, who scored 19 goals in the previous series, should grab a win here in game 1.
The Hurricanes, who allowed only 12 goals in the First Round, should limit the Rangers offense with Brent Burns, Jaccob Slavin, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone and limiting shots. Look for the Hurricanes to win Game 1.
