Boston Bruins vs. Carolina Hurricanes

April 9, 2024



Two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference will face off on Tuesday evening when the Carolina Hurricanes travel to Boston, Massachusetts, to face the Boston Bruins at the TD Garden. The game will start at 7:00 PM ET and air on Bally Sports South and New England Sports Network.

Carolina Hurricanes Team Preview

The Carolina Hurricanes have already secured their spot in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs and still have a chance to win the Metropolitan Division. However, they will need some help as they trail the New York Rangers for first place in the division by 5 points with only four games to go. 

However, this will be Carolina’s toughest opponent of their remaining four games, as two of their last three opponents are among the worst in the league. The Hurricanes lost to the Bruins at home less than a week ago by a score of 1-4. 

However, they have won both games since the loss, including Sunday’s 3-0 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets in their last home game of the regular season. This will be the third and final time Carolina will face Boston this season. The teams split the first two meetings, with the road team winning both games and Carolina winning the last time these teams met in Boston by a score of 3-2. 

The Carolina Hurricanes will travel to face the Boston Bruins and look to extend their winning streak to three games and win the regular season series 2-1.

Boston Bruins Team Preview

The Boston Bruins are close to winning their 2nd consecutive Atlantic Division title as they lead the Florida Panthers by 5 points with four games left to play in the regular season. Boston enters this game riding a four-game winning streak and has won five of their last six games. The Bruins have won by an average margin of 1.75 goals per game during their current four-game winning streak, which includes a 4-1 win against the Carolina Hurricanes on the road last Thursday. The Bruins have won three of the last five and two of the previous three games while having won by an average margin of .2 goals per game over the last five and 1 goal per game over the previous three meetings in the series. The Boston Bruins will look to win their 5th game in a row and their 2nd consecutive game in the series when they host the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday evening.

Odds and Series Trends

BetNow has the Carolina Hurricanes listed as -115 moneyline favorites on the road against the Boston Bruins on Tuesday evening. The road team has won three straight in the series, including the most recent meeting, which the Boston Bruins won 4-1. This was also their second win in the last three meetings and the third in the last five games in the series. 

Game Pick

Both teams are among the best in the Eastern Conference and have a chance to finish with the best record in the Eastern Conference. The road team has won the last three games in the series, while the teams have alternated wins over the last nine games, which favors the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday evening. As a result, I am taking the moneyline for the Carolina Hurricanes when they travel to face the Boston Bruins on Tuesday evening.
