NHL - Philadelphia Flyers vs Carolina Hurricanes Hockey betting preview

Ok.Game between two highly attacking teams here as Canes travel to face the Flyers in Philadelphia.

Flyers have positive 13-8-2 but are still looking for some consistency and longer winning streaks.They play powerful hockey, a lot of pressure and fast 4 man attacks.They often get caught up in the offensive zone, allowing other teams to hit the on breaks.It is a team that rather looks for outscoring the opponent then win the game by maintaining solid defense.This can be presented with information that Flyers have an game goal average of 7,8 in the last six games.Besides that, Flyers are 5th in the NHL ranking for goals scored, having 73 goals with game average 3,17.This is very good statistics regarding scoring but they beat it down with conceding 2,83 goals on average (17th in the league).Main people here are Richards and Briere, both very skilled and fast attackers.

Carolina (13-8-3) has identical situation this season, lack of consistency.They come out on a night and bomb their opponent winning by 3 goal margin, but play next night and fall by such difference.Thy also are a team that relies on outscoring opposition rather than on closing them down.Canes lead NHL with 80 scored goals, giving them average of 2,83 per game.Similar to Flyers, they conceed a lot, ranked 22nd with 2,96 goals against per game.In their last 6 games, Canes have game goals average of 6.Look for Staal and Stillman to deliver for the team.

The two played week ago in Carolina, with Flyers taking the game 6:3.It was a good fast game, and it could repeat itself tonight.

I see a good game here, with plenty shots on goal and consequently plenty of goals.Both teams have massive attacks which are far better than their defensive skills.Given the roughness of Flyers, game could see many power plays what might again give goal scoring opportunities.I am giving an edge to the Flyers here, as they will look to win at home after dropping 4 in a row - there is the motivation here and knowledge they popped 6 goals into Canes net that week ago.

IMO, both teams will exchange the lead, with second and third period scoring action (over 1,5 in the 2nd,3rd), and Flyers taking it 5:3.If you can find the bet, back Flyers to score 3 or more golas tonight.
