Both players have over 12 goals each and have been involved in the creation of goals too, making themselves crucial for the team as the season goes by.

Predators vs Hurricanes Betting Prediction

Nashville comes with a win and will look to beat the heat and get another win this season, but they face a tough opponent. Having a poor away record and struggling against the team's winning record makes things a little bit difficult for them.

While, even after losing their last game, Carolina will be composed in this game, given the team's strength they have. Playing at home, they have been brilliant, further have won 7 in the last 8 games playing on a day's rest.

The game is likely to be well-paced, but Carolina have an edge and is likely to find enough for a win in this one.

Prediction: Take, Carolina Hurricanes, -1.5(+230)
