The Carolina Hurricanes take on the Vegas Golden Knights, and they likely wish that they could take on the Western power in the playoffs. The Hurricanes have mostly owned this matchup, but they’ve never gotten a chance to show it when it matters, because they keep running into either the Panthers or the Rangers.

Against the Golden Knights, Carolina has simply been able to play its game and take control. The Hurricanes have done exactly that in the early parts of this season as well, comfortably winning night after night in 2025. Carolina is off to a 5-0 start, and only twice has the game even been close. Part of that could be because the Ducks and Sharks are among the weakest teams in the league again, but their record is what it is, and the Hurricanes are looking strong.

Carolina Hurricanes - Vegas Golden Knights Key Points

  1. Carolina has scored four goals or more in all five games.
  2. The over is 4-1 in Carolina’s five games.
  3. The Golden Knights have scored four or more goals in five of six games.
  4. The Hurricanes have won seven of nine against Vegas.

Our Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction

The Golden Knights’ biggest thing is that they start fast. Vegas has scored twice in five of six first periods, and that almost necessitates the high-scoring act that becomes part of the situation when they take the ice. But scoring with Carolina has been one of the hardest parts for Vegas in this series.

Normally, Vegas has no problem putting goals on the board. In their past seven tries against the Hurricanes, the Golden Knights have only gotten to four goals one time. That means the over could be a tough ask, and the total is probably not the way to go. It’s hard to take a team when they’re on the road against a team like Vegas and not even at even money, but the Hurricanes are in this spot for a reason. This is a matchup they know how to win. Our prediction for Carolina vs. Vegas is for the Hurricanes to win.
