Carolina has lost three in a row and, unlike last year, the road has not been kind to the Hurricanes. They are just 7-11 away from home and their defense this year has been anything but Championship-like. Colorado has historically done very well against Carolina, going 9-0-3 in the last 12. The Avs are scoring very well of late (3.4 per game over their last five). Home Favorites of -200 or less off a close loss by one goal vs. a team off an overtime loss are 34-4 (90%)over the last 5 seasons. For these reasons, we'll back the Avs here.
