WASHINGTON – The Washington Capitals are hoping to extend their series against the Carolina Hurricanes as they will face off for Game 5 of their second round series on Thursday night at 7 PM EST.

Hurricanes vs Capitals Game 5 Odds

The Hurricanes won each of the last two games at home in decisive fashion, scoring four or more goals in each and winning by multiple goals. Legal sports betting sites expect the Canes to wrap up this series Thursday night in Washington.

However, the Capitals winning outright at +142 odds is a great value.

The Hurricanes were in the bottom third of the league in road record this season, going just 16-21-4 away from home. They also lost both regular season matchups in Washington.

Carolina has gone 2-2 in four road games so far in this year’s playoffs. They were able to steal Game 1 in Washington, but lost Game 2 by a final score of 3-1.

The Capitals have been great at home all season with the seventh best home record in the NHL, going 26-9-6. They are 4-1 at home so far this postseason.

If the trends hold, Washington should have a fighter’s chance to win tonight and shift the series back to Carolina.

Pick Strome and Aho To Each Record A Point

Dylan Strome and Sebastian Aho have led their respective teams in points thus far in the playoffs and should continue to do so.

Bovada is currently offering a player point parlay for both Strome and Aho to score at least one point apiece with +115 odds.

Strome has recorded 11 points in these playoffs and at least one point in seven of his nine games, while Aho has scored ten points and at least one in six of his last nine.

Strome has scored a point in four of five home games this postseason and Aho has scored in three of four road games.

All signs point to both players being able to cash in on at least one point in tonight’s game. Take the odds at +115 on legal NHL betting sites.
