The Hurricanes are 0-5 in their last 5 road games and 13-5 in their last 18 overall. The Rangers are 41-20 in their last 61 home games and 5-2 in their last 7 overall. The under is 6-0 in Hurricanes last 6 overall. The under is 5-0 in Rangers last 5 overall. The Hurricanes are 6-20 in the last 26 meetings in New York and 16-35 in the last 51 meetings.

As I’ve said before, defense becomes the top priority once you get into the business end of the series. Nobody wants to make that mistake trying to be super aggressive at the other end. In this series through five games, we’re seeing an average of 3.6 goals, so this was a low scoring series to begin with. The under has hit in 9 of the last 12 meetings between these teams overall. I’ll keep riding the under in this series.
