THE PROFESSOR NHL CODE BLUE DESTRUCTION
(NHL) Carolina vs. Boston, 08/13/2020 8:00 PM, Score: 3 - 2
Money Line: -140.00 Boston (Home)
Result: Loss
The Carolina Hurricanes finished the regular season with a total of 81 points which was good for fourth place in the Metropolitan Division and are the fifth seen in the playoffs. The Hurricanes have won three of their first four playoff games but lost game one to Boston in double overtime. Petr Mrazek ill get the start in net for game two. During the regular season, he was 21-16-2 with a 2.69 goals-against average and a .905 save percentage.
The Boston Bruins struggled after the restart, losing their first three games. They fell to the fourth seed in the playoffs. They were able to take game one 4-3 in double overtime. The Bruins will start Tuukka Rask in net. In the regular season, he was 26-8-6 with a 2.12 goals-against average.

Boston took game one in double overtime. Carolina is in a must-win situation and cannot afford to go in a 0-2 hole. Boston looked better than they did in the round-robin games. I believe the game one win was important to Boston to get the swagger back and they should be able to take game two in a tough battle.

Play on Boston.
