This is a 10* TOP TOTAL on the UNDER Vegas/Canes.

Both teams can score. But each is adept on the defensive end as well. Vegas has taken a step back in that department this season after leading the league last year, but it still concedes 2.95 GPG.

Carolina though is No. 1 in the league by allowing just 2.39 GPG.

The Hurricanes are off a 7-4 loss at New Jersey, which is very signficiant to note, as Carolina has seen the total go UNDER in seven of its last nine off a road loss in which it allowed six or more goals in.

Vegas on the other hand has seen the total go UNDER in four of its last five in trying to revenge a home loss against an opponent (lost 4-2 on Nov. 16th in this matchup.)

The stage is set for a competitive battle, but one that falls well UNDER once the final horn sounds.

Good luck, NP
