This is a 10* play on CAROLINA

Our call on Carolina in Game #5 was obviously quite bad. They did outshoot Washington, but the fact that they lost 6-0 makes that rather irrelevant. Now it's do or die time for the Hurricanes as they face elimination. Fortunate for them they'll be back in Raleigh for Game #6. The home team has won every game in this series and we believe that pattern will hold true tonight and thus we're headed for a Game #7 back in Washington. As discussed going into the last game, Carolina has done an effective job at limiting the number of shots by the Capitals in this series. Washington is only averaging 25.6 shots per game. This was a strength of Carolina in the regular season. So was getting the puck on net as they were tops in the league in shots per game themselves. The Caps are just 2-5 SU their last seven games as an underdog. Carolina is 13-3 its last 16 games as a favorite of -110 to -150. They are also 4-1 the last five times following a loss by three or more goals. They held Washington to one goal in the two previous games here. Play on CAROLINA
