Carolina Hurricanes vs Philadelphia Flyers. The NHL pick for this game is the Carolina Hurricanes.

The Flyers have a minor advantage in terms of rest as they were at home on Friday night and will be here again for this second game of a back-to-back.

Although Sandstrom had difficulties in goal during his first season, he is not the only goaltender for the Flyers to be having difficulties. When it involves keeping the puck out of their net, Carolina excels at their end of the rink.

Recently, the Hurricanes’ offense suffered a little, especially with the season-ending knee injury suffered by Andrei Svechnikov.

Even with that in mind, Carolina defeated the Flyers six times in a row and has a lot more at stake in the remaining games than the Flyers do.

Expect the Hurricanes to triumph on the road in this game. The Carolina Hurricanes will win to a predicted score of 6-3.
