=11.0ptThe 2-2-0 Carolina Hurricanes take on the 2-4-0 Edmonton Oilers tonight in Rogers Place. Carolina has 2 wins on the year sandwiched between 2 losses. Their last game was a 4-3 loss in St. Louis where they tried to mount a successful 3rd period comeback after trailing 3-1. They tied things up on a Jack Roslovic goal but with just under 5 minutes to go, Kasperi Kapanen of the Blues found the back of the net for what would be the game winning goal. On the season, Carolina has been strong defensively. The 11 total goals they have allowed is 5th best in the NHL. However, the 12 goals they have scored, ranks them 27th in the league. Oddly enough, the same can be said for their opponents tonight. Edmonton has also scored just 12 goals on the season. For Edmonton, their bigger issue has been keeping pucks out of their own nets. They have allowed 24 goals to date, which is 27th in the league. Tonight, they have Stuart Skinner starting in goal. He has allowed 14 goals in his 4 games started. They will need him to have a much better game tonight for the Oilers to stay in this one.

Our Carolina Hurricanes vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction
With both teams being near the bottom of the league, you would lean towards playing the under. However, with Edmonton being so bad defensively, we believe this one could be a higher scoring game than the experts think. Also, the fact that the total is juiced up to -125, leads us to believe that it should be a 6.5 total which gives us value here at 6. The trends back our play here and that gives us more confidence on the over.
Our prediction for Carolina Hurricanes vs Edmonton Oilers: OVER 6, -125 at Draftkings.
