🏈 NFL Playoffs
Last Updated: January 15, 2025 10:00 AM EST • 2 min 24 sec read.
The Carolina Hurricanes haven’t acted like one of the favorites lately, particularly away from the friendly confines of Lenovo Center. 
After losing four of the last five on the road, the Hurricanes get another chance to turn the tide when they face the Buffalo Sabres, who are tied for the third-worst home points percentage (.318) since Nov. 26, at KeyBank Center on Wednesday (6 p.m. ET, TNT). 
Carolina secured five of the last six points but played well enough to take all six, and our Hurricanes vs. Sabres prediction and betting preview expect the visitors to continue that form and secure victory in regulation.
NHL odds via our best NHL betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale.
The Hurricanes’ 12-11-3 record in the last 26 games doesn’t exactly scream Stanley Cup odds contender. While they’ve had some dire luck between the pipes, Carolina hasn’t come near meeting expectations in the last two months. Their road record, which is 2-5-1 since Dec. 6, has let them down the most. 
However, they won’t get a better opportunity to get back on the winning track when they face a Sabres team that has lost nine of the last 11 in their own barn. 
The Hurricanes must have left Raleigh with boosted confidence after three games they dominated, winning the expected goals battle in each contest.
Pyotr Kochetkov should shoulder the blame for the 3-2 loss against the Anaheim Ducks, in which he finished with -1.44 goals saved above expected. 
Goaltending has been an issue all season for the Hurricanes, but the good news is the Sabres don’t have elite puck-stoppers either. An average night between the pipes for whoever starts should be good enough for Carolina to win in regulation. A $10 bet will yield an $8.33 profit if they do. 
Best odds: -120 via Betway | Implied probability: 54.55%

NHL picks made Wednesday; odds subject to change.
Alex Tuch has hit the Over on this prop in three straight contests and six of the previous eight. Two things drew me to this prop: Tuch fires more shots on goal at KeyBank Center, where he has at least two shots in seven of the previous eight, including the last four in a row. 
Also, he’s still on the second line and sees time on the second power-play unit. I expect him to extend his Over streak on home ice to five games, which would pay $7.14 on a $10 bet.  
Best odds: -140 via Betway | Implied probability: 58.33%
