Carolina is able to keep games close by focusing on defense and a slow pace. They come off a 5-4 overtime loss at the San Jose Sharks on Thursday as a dog. Carolina is 185-156 after a loss by 1 goal. Streaky Los Angeles is favored on a hot streak. However, before this streak started they had lost 8 of 10, losing all 8 as chalk. The Kings are off a 4-3 win over Ottawa as -180 favorite, but are 64-75 at home off a home victory scoring 4 or more goals. And Los Angeles Kings coach John Stevens is just 18-33 at home when facing a team with a winning percentage between 40-49%. Play Carolina.
