The Carolina Hurricanes (52-23-7, 25-13-3 away) finally got on the board in the best-of-seven series with the New York Rangers (55-23-4, 30-11-0 home) on Saturday but if they’re going to keep their season alive in Game 5 on Monday night, they will need to had the Rangers their first postseason loss at home.
Carolina and New York meet at 7:10 pm ET at Madison Square Garden and the Rangers are slight -112 favorites to close out the series tonight. The Hurricanes come back at -108 to extend it to a Game 6. The game total is sitting at 5.5 with the under slightly favored at -112.
Carolina Hurricanes vs New York Rangers Prediction
The Hurricanes were brutally unlucky to be down 3-0 in this series. They generated 12.81 xGF in the first three games of the series (per moneypuck.com), compared to 10.14, but wound up on the wrong end of three one-goal games – including two in overtime – thanks to sensational goaltending from Igor Shesterkin.
The Russian has a 2.25 GAA and .927 save percentage so far in the postseason, well ahead of Carolina starter Frederik Andersen (2.63 GAA, .897 SV%) in both categories. The Rangers also went 2-1 against the Hurricanes in the regular season with a pair of one-goal victories. Carolina’s lone win, though, was a dominant 6-1 victory at MSG on Jan. 2, when they put a half-dozen by Shesterkin on just 27 shots.
While coach Rod Brind’Amour won’t be happy with his team blowing a 3-1 lead in Game 4, Carolina was full value for its 4-3 win. They outshot the Rangers 31-25 and had a 48-40 edge in shot attempts. The xGF were 3.66 to 2.53 in Carolina’s favor. With the Hurricanes finally getting over the hump in Game 4, I expect another season-saving effort in Game 5.
