Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction: the Hurricanes are not in a good mood after two losses

Prediction for the NHL Carolina Hurricanes vs Vegas Golden Knights match which will take place on December 20th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Carolina has been far from their best this season. The team has scored only 35 points in 31 games, only seventh in the East. The Hurricanes are in fourth place in the Metropolitan Division standings. If we talk about the past games of the Hurricanes, they registered two wins after a series of four consecutive losses, and the day before, they lost two games - 5:6 against Nashville in overtime and 1:2 against Washington in shootouts.

Vegas continues to lead not only the Pacific Division but the West as well. The Golden Knights have 47 points, which can be called fantastic. Obviously, the team is back in the hunt for the Stanley Cup and intends to defend their title. Vegas has also been on a roll lately, with five wins in the last six meetings. After their only loss in that stretch against Buffalo (2:5), they beat Ottawa 6:3.

In the upcoming meeting, we suggest betting on Vegas. For some unknown reason, bookmakers consider Carolina to be the favorite of the game, which we disagree with. It's evident that the Golden Knights are much more awake this season, and they've been doing great lately - five wins in six games. On the other hand, the Hurricanes are not in a good mood after two losses in a row.
