Bruins vs. Hurricanes: Game 7 prediction

Goal Line: Bruins +1.5 (-235); Hurricanes -1.5 (+190)
Bruins: +115
Hurricanes: -135

Home teams have dominated this series with each team winning all three of their games on home ice and doing it in blowout fashion. The bottom line is that this is a series of matchups and the home team gets to decide the matchups. As long as Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour can control the matchups and get the lines he wants to nullify Bruins forward Brad Marchand, the Hurricanes will win.

Pick: Hurricanes -1.5
