Both of these defenses have taken the week off. Over their last five gams Boston has allowed 3.2 goals per game while Carolina has given up 3.8 per game. Neither defense was good to start with but they've gotten worse. At home Carolina averages 3.1 goals per game so they should easily get to 3 here and will likely score more than that. Boston scores more on the road (2.8 per game) than at home (2.4 per game) so against this weak Hurricanes defense, they should also get to 3 or more. Over the past three seasons, Carolina is 25-10 OVER after allowing 4+ goals in two straight games. We see the scoring spree continuing.
