The bet on Carolina Hurricanes +1.5 in the Puck Line market is backed up by recent performance data from both teams. The Hurricanes have demonstrated a robust away record, remaining undefeated in their last five away games. In contrast, the Panthers have struggled at home, winning just one out of their last five home games. Even though the Panthers have a slight edge in their recent overall record (3-2) compared to the Hurricanes (3-2), the Hurricanes have performed well in terms of their average goals against (1.8) and goals for (1) stats in their last five away games. Additionally, the model prediction is very close to zero, indicating a narrow game, and the Hurricanes being given a 1.5 goal head start provides a significant cushion. These factors suggest that the Hurricanes have a good chance of covering the Puck Line of +1.5.
