Frederik Andersen got a much-needed break in Game 2 after going four overtimes and recording 57 saves in the series opener. With him back on the ice, our NHL betting picks expect yet another defensive slugfest.
If we're going with this game going Under the low total of 5.5, I think it's safe to assume both netminders will make their fair share of saves to keep this game from getting out of hand.
As for Andersen, he's been as good as the Hurricanes could have hoped since returning from injury. The netminder wasn't between the pipes in Game 2s loss, but it's confirmed he'll be called upon today. His saves total is two shots lower than Bobrovsky's due to the output difference these teams usually produce in the SOG category, but his 1.65 GAA and .936% SV% prove if the Panthers can get shots on him, he'll find a way to keep them out of the net.
The Panthers haven't been lighting the world afire offensively, either, but they’re getting timely goals. Matthew Tkachuk has been the star the team hoped for when they shipped Jonathan Huberdeau and MacKenzie Weeger to Calgary in the offseason.
