Why the Carolina Hurricanes will win
Carolina Hurricanes vs NY Rangers PredictionI’m on the Rangers here. I know this is a desperate spot for a superb Carolina team at home, where they’ve played their best hockey all year long. However, the Rangers are 6-0 in the playoffs so far, proving that sweeps happen even to the best teams out there. The Rangers have found a way in each of their first two wins in this series, and the Rangers were one of the NHL’s best road teams as well this season. Getting them at this price is worth the play based on value alone. Give me the Rangers for the 3-0 series lead. |
