Expert Betting Tips

Columbus has improved lately, but they are still the biggest underdog in the NHL Eastern Conference. It's unlikely that they'll be able to climb higher at the end of the regular season, so tournament motivation is out of the question. On the other hand, Carolina has a lot of work to do and needs to prepare for the playoffs. The home team will have no trouble with the underdog.
