This is a long road trip for Carolina, but the team is on a 2-1 run, upsetting New Jersey as a +115 dog. The last game they were a +175 dog at Dallas and lost just 6-5, clawing back from a 5-1 deficit. They will get back to slowing the pace down for this game as Carolina is #27 in the NHL in goals scored. Carolina is 31-15-8 UNDER the total against the Western Conference, plus 36-14-4 UNDER after allowing five goals or more in their previous game. Defenseman Justin Faulk leads Carolina with 11 goals and 21 points after scoring twice Tuesday and once in a 5-4 victory over Arizona on Sunday. The Hurricanes are 5-2 after allowing five goals or more in their previous game. They face a fragile Anaheim squad that has disappointed much of the year, on a 6-8 run. Anaheim is last in the NHL in goals scored, just 1.9 per game, slowing things down and focusing on defense. They come off a 2-1 victory over Pittsburgh but the Ducks are 1-5 after a win. They boast the NHL's top penalty-killing unit at 87.8 percent and rank #9 in goals allowed. Anaheim is 4-0-1 UNDER the total at home and the UNDER is 12-5-3 when these teams meet. Take Carolina and the UNDER.
