LiontipsOttawa vs Carolina. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (February 9, 2022).
Command Analysis
Ottawa are occupying the second-to-last line in the Eastern Conference table, but they have a good chance to strengthen their standings and overtake New Jersey in the near future. Recently, the Senators beat the Devils at home with the score of 4:1. Matt Murray had a great game - he saved a total of 32 shots.
The Senators will be facing some difficult opponents in the upcoming games, but three of these matches will take place in Ottawa. At home, the team usually cling to points and concede less than on their travels.
Carolina consistently are in the top-5 clubs this season. Recently, they were on a streak of four victories, which was broken at Toronto (3:4 OT). Before that game, the Hurricanes beat San Jose and New Jersey with the same score of 2:1.
