Command Analysis
Carolina Hurricanes
USACurrent form
Carolina remains on the fifth line in the conference table and is still four points behind Toronto, which is in second place. Rod Brindamore's team scored 72 points in 59 games and had a poor February. The hosts lost five games out of seven last month, while Kanes suffered two away defeats after a break. They were defeated in Toronto (3:5), and two days later they lost dry to Montreal (0:4). The Hurricanes didn't create much on their own against the Canadiens, but their defensive play let them down. After returning home, the Canes easily defeated Buffalo (5-2). They quickly seized the advantage and did not allow the opponent to get close to them in the score.
Frederik Andersen takes the ice at the start every other match and has 90.34% of his saves so far. The Dane is not always good at the last turn, but he has only recently returned to action after an injury and has already managed to make one shutout. Pyotr Kochetkov has already played 36 matches this season, but the Russian was able to repel a modest 90.23% of attacks on his possessions.
Mikko Rantanen scored only five points after transferring from Colorado and hasn't been pleasing fans with a bright game for a long time. The Finnish forward scored 69 goals (27+42) and beat Sebastian Aho (21+36) by a margin of 12 points, who has not scored too many goals so far. The rest of the Hurricanes' hockey players don't look so good and so far they can't compete with the club's leaders.
Disqualifications and injuries
William Carrier and Jesper Fast will not participate in the upcoming bout due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Carolina makes 32 shots on target.
The Hurricanes play powerfully offensively and spend a lot of time in someone else's zone, hitting the opponent's goal with a lot of shots.
- According to statistics, hurricanes carry out 18 power techniques
Karolina doesn't play hardball, so you rarely see a lot of strength in her performance.
Edmonton Oilers
CanadaCurrent form
Edmonton remains on the fourth line in the conference and is still fighting for first place in the Pacific Division table. The team from the province of Alberta has earned 72 points in 59 matches and is only four points away from Vegas, while the leader of the East has pulled away from the Oilers by 15 points. Before the break, Connor McDavid's squad showed a good level of play, but alternated between a series of victories and failures. After the rest, the Oilers have not yet been able to get in shape. They lost on the road in Philadelphia (3-6), Washington (3-7) and Tampa (1-4). Before the trip to Raleigh, Chris Nobloch's team was defeated in Florida (3:4). They fought back twice during the match, but still lost to their opponent.
The Canadians didn't always play well offensively in February, although they scored 17 times in the last six meetings. Overall, Edmonton is very good up front and is scoring 3.25 goals on average. Leon Draisatl scored 88 points (44+44) this season and is once again the best sniper in the league. The captain of the guests assists more and ranks fourth in the league's goalscoring list (22+52).
Chris Nobloch's men were not good defensively and conceded 26 goals in the last five matches. Stuart Skinner reflects only 89.76% of shots during the regular season and had only two dry fights. Calvin Picard often appears on the court, because the main goalkeeper of the guests can not get in shape. The Canadian made 89.56% of his saves, but never left the ice without conceding goals.
Disqualifications and injuries
Evander Kane will not be coming with the team in Raleigh. Darnell Nurs' participation is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- Edmonton has 76:51 on goals scored and conceded in the second period.
The Oilers have the best second period in terms of reliability, and they score a lot on their own.
- Oilers win 51.5% of face-offs
The guests look good on the spot and often win the puck for their partners.
Trends
Bet1st period: total less than 1.5 pucks
In 7 of the last 14 games against Carolina, fewer than two goals were scored in the first period.
2.07Bet2nd period: "Carolina" will score
The Kanes have scored in the second period in seven of their last ten games.
1.40Tip and bets
Carolina is gaining momentum and after two unpleasant defeats, the hosts defeated Buffalo in the previous home match. Rod Brindamore's players have been playing very hard on their ice throughout the regular season and have only lost points twice in the Role since the beginning of the year. Edmonton can't come to its senses after the break, now the guests have already suffered five defeats in a row. In the fall, these teams met with each other in Canada, and then the hurricanes turned out to be stronger. We think that the support of their native stands will help them now. We offer a bet on winning first with a handicap of zero.
Our prediction is that Carolina will win with an Asian handicap (0) in 1.70
Betting on an individual total
Carolina missed a lot in February, but Kanes made only two mistakes in the last match. In general, the red light behind the home team's goal lights up only 2.55 times per game, while Edmonton is usually always good on offense. The guests are clearly not at ease right now, so we don't expect the Canadians to score more than two goals.
Betting Tip - Edmonton's individual total is less than three goals in 1.65
Bet on the total
In the autumn, only four goals were scored during regular time in a match between these teams. The Oilers are playing extremely well, but now they need to think about playing on their side of the ice. Carolina has no problem defending when Rod Brindamore's players are in the role. We believe that the match will not be too bright. Let's place a bet on the total less.
Betting Tip - total less than six goals in 1.90
