Carolina Hurricanes Form
Carolina head to New York looking to build on a successful start to the series that saw them win back-to-back home games.
The Hurricanes ended the regular season in second place in the Metropolitan Division, thanks to a 52-23-7 record.
They closed out the campaign in strong fashion by winning seven of their final nine games, and they have kept that good form going in the postseason.
Carolina drew first blood in this series as they made the most of home advantage to run out 3-1 winners over the New York Islanders.
The Hurricanes made harder work of the second game though, as they had to fight back from three goals down to beat the Islanders 5-3.
New York Islanders Form
New York head back home looking to get back into the series after suffering back-to-back defeats on the road.
The Islanders advanced to the postseason by finishing third in the Metropolitan Division with a 39-27-16 record.
They ended the regular season in great form too, winning eight of their last nine games to ride some momentum into this series with their division rivals.
However, New York find themselves in a hole in this series, having dropped both of their first two road games in this series.
The Islanders opened their postseason campaign with a 3-1 defeat in Carolina, and then blew a three-goal lead as they lost the second meeting 5-3.
Verdict
New York choked in Game 2 and, as a result, they may have thrown away a huge opportunity.
Carolina have had the edge in meetings this season and they have won their last four games at the UBS Arena, so we are backing the Hurricanes to take an even stronger grip on this series.
