Stanley Cup Final Betting Preview: Golden Knights vs Hurricanes

The Vegas Golden Knights (39-26-17, 19-14-8 on the road) take on the Carolina Hurricanes (53-22-7, 29-10-2 at home) at Lenovo Center in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final. The series is tied 2-2.

The Golden Knights go up against the Hurricanes and we’re predicting the teams to fall short of the 6.5 goals total. We are therefore backing the Under selection at -132.

Jordan Staal starred for Carolina in Game 4, scoring twice as the Canes outshot the Knights 28-21. Jackson Blake, Logan Stankoven and Nikolaj Ehlers also found the net, while Mark Stone, William Karlsson and Brett Howden scored for Vegas.
