Carolina vs Boston: prediction for the NHL game
Carolina crushed Boston in the first game, but can the Bruins bounce back and win on May 4? Here's our prediction.
Command Analysis
Carolina Hurricanes
USACarolina are one of the main contenders for the Stanley Cup this season. They finished in 2nd place in the Eastern Conference and confidently defeated the Boston Bruins in the first game of their last-16 match (5:1).
The Hurricanes looked great both on defense and in attack, didn't give enough space to the opponents in the zone and successfully converted their chances. Moreover, the Canes once again proved that they are the best at defending against power plays by not allowing the Bruins to capitalize on their man advantage.
Boston Bruins
USALast year, Boston lost in the second round of the playoffs, and obviously they don't want to get a worse result in the current season. However, the Bruins have a weaker team this time and basically can rely only on their first attacking line.
The Hurricanes were able to neutralize Marchand, Pastrnak, and Bergeron - none of the Boston Big 3 could score. The Bruins faced problems against Carolina every time during the regular season, and their challenge is to find a way to defeat the Hurricanes.
