Devils vs Hurricanes Betting Prediction
The game is very interesting as both one and two in the division face each other. The road performances of the Devs have been brilliant and come into the game with a win, making them comfortable for the encounter. However, the Canes are battling a losing run which puts them under a lot of pressure. They can take inspiration from the offensive run, which has been good irrespective of the losses.
With a better home record against the Devils, we can expect them to exploit the opposition's defense to score enough for a win. Take Hurricanes on the spread, given the strength of the teams, the game is likely to stay close.
