Hurricanes vs. Flyers Prediction, Odds, Best Prop Bet for NHL Playoffs Game 3

The Eastern Conference Semifinals series between the Carolina Hurricanes and Philadelphia Flyers shifts to South Philly for Game 3 on Thursday night.

It was all Hurricanes in a 3-0 shutout win in Game 1, but the Flyers gave Carolina a scare with a 2-0 lead in Game 2. Unfortunately for Philadelphia, the Canes came back to win it 3-2 in overtime.

Can the Flyers get their first win of the series on home ice tonight?

Here are the odds, starting goalies, how to watch, and predictions for Hurricanes vs. Flyers in Game 3 on Thursday, May 7.

Hurricanes vs. Flyers Best NHL Prop Bets

Hurricanes Best NHL Prop Bet

Logan Stankoven OVER 2.5 Shots on Goal (-125)

We cashed on this prop in Game 2 as Stankoven fired four shots on net after he came through for us with a point in Game 1.

I’m going right back to Stankoven to get at least three shots on goal in Game 3. He has OVER 2.5 shots on goal in all six games this postseason, including OVER 3.5 in four contests.

Stankoven is proving to be a big-game player for the Hurricanes.

Hurricanes vs. Flyers Prediction and Pick

After closing as -245 and -275 favorites in Games 1 and 2, the Hurricanes are just -166 favorites here on the road. If you’re looking to play a side, Carolina has the value tonight. However, I do think the Flyers give them a good fight on home ice, so I’m once again going with the UNDER 5.5.

The UNDER 5.5 was in doubt in Game 2 when the Flyers took an early 2-0 lead and the Hurricanes scored to make it 2-1 in the first period. But both goalies stood tall after that, and the teams combined to go 2 for 13 on the power play.

I’m expecting another tight-checking, low-scoring game in Philadelphia tonight.

Pick: UNDER 5.5 (-142)
