🏆 Who will win Hurricanes vs. Senators?
I'm taking the Hurricanes to win Game 4 by a score of 4-1. The Senators have been fortunate to hang around in the individual games in this series, but I have Carolina winning Game 4 by multiple scores to send Ottawa packing.
Score prediction: Hurricanes 4, Senators 1 (+1800)
💰 Hurricanes vs. Senators prediction & best bet
Hurricanes ML (-105)
Two one-goal games have obscured just how dominant Carolina has been in this series. The Hurricanes have had the most dominant offensive performance of the first round thus far.
They lead the playoffs with 3.93 expected goals per 60, according to MoneyPuck. The only thing that's kept these games close is Linus Ullmark and his postseason-best 5.3 goals saved above expected. Whether or not the Senators' netminder can keep up that otherworldly play, the Hurricanes are dominating the chances against Ottawa. I'm backing them to sweep the series on Saturday at DraftKings' -105 moneyline odds.
🔥 Best Hurricanes vs. Senators player prop bet
Taylor Hall Over 0.5 points (+108)
The Senators have had no answer for the Hurricanes' second line of Taylor Hall, Logan Stankoven, and Jackson Blake.
Hall leads this series with five points and has tallied at least one in all three games. Whether Hall scores himself - he has three unblocked high-danger shots already - or sets up a linemate for a goal, I'm confident he gets on the score sheet again in Game 4.
The market hasn't adjusted to Hall's success against the Senators, and I'm thrilled to place a wager at FanDuel's plus-money odds.
🚀 Hurricanes vs. Senators same-game parlay
I'm backing a simple 2-leg parlay on the Hurricanes to win and Under 5.5. Carolina has been the much better team in this matchup, according to the analytics. Meanwhile, the series is 3-0 to the Under, with an average of just over three goals total per game.

My top play for Game 4 is on the Hurricanes to win, as they have been far and away the better team in this series by virtually every underlying metric. Whether or not Linus Ullmark and Frederik Andersen's incredible play continues between the pipes (I also bet on the Under), Carolina has shown it can win any way it needs to versus the Senators. Bankroll management is crucial in sports betting, so be smart with yours.
📊 Live Hurricanes vs. Senators odds: Game 4
This game opened as a virtual pick'em - Senators are favored slightly - and I expect that to more or less remain leading up to puck drop. The total is set at 5.5, and I anticipate that holding but that the Under will shift toward minus-money odds (currently at +100 at DraftKings).
