Hurricanes

-198

Blues

+164

The Blues have won two straight games and are trying to keep their playoff hopes alive late in the regular season.
Carolina has already locked up a playoff spot and should not come out as sharp as the Blues, even if the Canes can help their chances of winning the Metropolitan Division with a victory here.

The Carolina Hurricanes are set to face off against the St. Louis Blues on April 12, 2024 at 8:00 pm ET. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Hurricanes are favored at -198, while the Blues are the underdogs at +164. Early betting trends show that 69% of moneyline bets are on the Hurricanes, with the remaining 31% on the Blues. The initial total of 6.0 has no clear preference from bettors on the over or under. This matchup promises to be an exciting contest between two competitive teams vying for victory.

This game features two teams who do still have playoff considerations at hand late in the regular season. The Hurricanes have locked up a playoff spot in the Metropolitan Division, but can help their seeding prospects with a win tonight. Meanwhile, the Blues are just outside of the final Wild Card place and can move closer to the Vegas Golden Knights with a win and a Knights loss against the Wild on Friday.

We think that the Blues will help themselves by getting a win at home in tonight's Hurricanes vs Blues matchup from St. Louis. The Blues have won two straight games and have been tough to beat at home all season long, entering this game with a record of 24-13-2 on home ice on the year. Look for the Blues to get a significant win here to make things more interesting in the race for the final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
