New Jersey Devils vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction

Back Carolina Hurricanes at -1.5 on the spread for this NHL clash. The +104 appeals and the puck line provides more value than the moneyline in our opinion.

There’s the chance to sell goals and that means moving the line until you’re happy with the wager. It means a riskier Puck Line bet but a bigger return on the odds available.

Canes -1.5 Probability

According to the sportsbooks, there’s a 49% likelihood of our pick landing a return. Based on our cappers in-depth research, we calculate the actual probability to be 55-60%. This is why we regard this as a value bet.
