Los Angeles Kings (37-21-9) and Carolina Hurricanes (42-22-4) will face off Saturday night at the Crypto.com Arena. Both teams are doing well in their respective divisions and will look to solidify their postseason spots with a win in this matchup. The Kings are third in the Pacific Division with 83 points, just 2 points behind the Oilers and 5 points behind the Golden Knights. Impressively, they have played two games less than the Oilers and a game less than the Golden Knights.
Carolina Hurricanes, on the other hand, are second in the Metropolitan Division with 88 points. That’s 16 points ahead of the fourth-placed Islanders and 8 points ahead of the Devils. However, they are 12 points behind the Capitals, who have played a game more, meaning they can still clinch the top spot. The Hurricanes’ form has peaked at the right time, going on an eight-game winning streak, and are coming off a 3-1 win over the Sharks. They are the exciting +135 betting favorites in this matchup.

Our Carolina Hurricanes vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction
The Hurricanes are on fire, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see them win this matchup. They have scored an average of 4.0 goals in the last five matches while conceding only 1.2 goals. Conversely, the Kings have been disappointing in front of goal lately, scoring an average of 2.4 goals per game in the last five assignments. However, the Kings have been highly impressive at the back, conceding an average of 1.0 goals in their previous five outings. Still, we expect the sharp-shooting Hurricanes to find a way to break down their defense and get a vital win on Saturday. Note that the Hurricanes have won in their last four visits to the Crypto.com Arena. Our prediction for Los Angeles Kings vs Carolina Hurricanes: Under 5.5 goals to hit.
