Blackhawks vs Hurricanes preview

Carolina is a -390 moneyline favorite and -1.5 on the spread, with the total at 6.5. The last meeting was a 5-2 Chicago home loss on October 10. Chicago’s recent form is 2-8 straight up and 3-7 against the spread over its last 10, while Carolina is 7-3 straight up and 4-6 against the spread over its last 10.

The most useful angle is the defensive gap: Chicago allows 3.94 goals per game (31st) and 30.53 shots on goal per game (31st), while Carolina allows 2.33 goals (3rd) and 22.56 shots (1st). Carolina also plays at a faster pace (55.8, 10th) than Chicago (53.6, 22nd). For prop research, Connor Bedard’s over 0.5 points is priced at -158, has cleared in 8 of his last 10, and the StatsBench model projects 0.8 points. Logan Stankoven’s over 1.5 shots on goal is -305 and has cleared in 9 of his last 10.
