The Carolina Hurricanes and Vegas Golden Knights meet Sunday in NHL Game 6 at the T-Mobile Arena. Here’s a Golden Knights vs Hurricanes Prediction. This article will include a Golden Knights vs Hurricanes Pick.
The Carolina Hurricanes look to win their first Stanley Cup since the 2005-06 season. The Hurricanes have won 7 of their 8 playoff road games.
The Carolina Hurricanes are averaging 3.5 goals per game and are scoring on 18.1 percent of their power play opportunities. Logan Stankoven leads Carolina with 11 goals, Taylor Hall has 12 assists, and Andrei Svechnikov has 50 shots on goal. Defensively, the Carolina Hurricanes are allowing 2.17 goals per game and are killing 91.2 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Frederik Andersen has given up 32 goals on 354 shots faced, and Brandon Bussi has allowed 6 goals on 65 shots.
The Vegas Golden Knights need a win to save their season and force a Game 7 on Wednesday. The Golden Knights haven’t lost 3 straight games since March 24-28.
The Vegas Golden Knights are averaging 3.62 goals per game and are scoring on 21.3 percent of their power play opportunities. Brett Howden leads Vegas with 14 goals, Jack Eichel has 20 assists, and Mitch Marner has 54 shots on goal. Defensively, the Vegas Golden Knights are allowing 2.81 goals per game and are killing 81.3 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Carter Hart has given up 57 goals on 615 shots faced.
William Karlsson is questionable for the Golden Knights with an arm injury.
The Hurricanes don’t have any players listed on their injury report.
I’d lean Hurricanes if you wanted a side, but I’m going to keep backing the over, as I’ve done throughout this series. Seven of the last 9 games between the Canes and Golden Knights have produced at least 6 goals. This series alone is averaging 7.8 goals per game. The Canes and Golden Knights have been offensive powerhouses all playoffs long, and this series has been no different. Sure, defense tends to take over at the business end of a series as guys get tight and don’t want to make a mistake, but we’ve seen no signs of the offense slowing down. I’m rolling with the over in Game 6.
If this is the end of the NHL season, thanks for the reads, and see you folks in a few months.
