Carolina scored twice early in the game then added another late in the second period to cruise to victory.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7v\">The Canes took advantage of a few Flyers turnovers to get on the board, while Philadelphia struggled to keep up with Carolina\u2019s pace. Carolina plays a suffocating style as shown in its first-round sweep of the Senators.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7y\">I\u2019m expecting another close game, and see some value on the Flyers as big road underdogs, but the best bet here has to be the UNDER.<\/p>\n<p>Anaheim Ducks at Vegas Golden Knights OVER 6.5 (-108)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"84\">The Ducks surprised a lot of people by taking down the Edmonton Oilers in the first round. Anaheim was able to keep up with the Oilers offensively, and even held Edmonton to just two goals in the series-clinching win.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"87\">But goals were the name of the game in that series, with totals getting as high as 7 (juiced to the OVER) in the final few games.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8a\">The Golden Knights\u2019 offense appears to be clicking now as well after scoring five goals in each of its final three games against Utah. They need to score to make up for some shaky goaltending in the crease.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8d\">The Ducks won all three meetings this season by a final score of 4-3, including two in overtime. I\u2019d be surprised if we don\u2019t get a goalfest to start this series in Vegas.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-16\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8i\">Claim the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/sportsbook-promos\/draftkings-promo-code\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DraftKings promo code<\/a> offer today.
