(NHL) Carolina vs. Tampa Bay, 02/25/2021 7:00 PM, Score: 1 - 3
Money Line: 125.00 Carolina (Away)
Result: Loss
8* CAROLINA - The Hurricanes lost 3-0 yesterday but will respond today. McElhinney is expected to be between the pipes for the Lightning here since it was Vasilevskiy yesterday. McElhinney allowed 6 goals in his most recent start. Last season he had a 2.89 GAA. He is a big drop off from Vasilevskiy. The Canes are expected to start Reimer here and, though unspectacular, he has been consistent. Reimer has allowed 3 or less in goals in 8 of his 10 appearances this season including each of his last 4. The Hurricanes are off back to back losses for the first time this season and had been 4-0 when off a defeat. They will respond here with a big effort at Tampa Bay and take advantage of the goaltending situation in this one. Great underdog value here. 8* CAROLINA
