Hurricanes vs. Sabres Prediction

Based on one historically profitable NHL betting system, the Hurricanes vs. Sabres prediction for tonightโ€™s game is the Sabres Moneyline (+185) and Puck Line (+1.5, -125).

The last time these teams met, Buffalo captured a 4-2 home win over the Hurricanes.ย 

Given that result and the fact Carolina enters this game off a bad loss, it triggers a historically profitable system in Buffaloโ€™s favor.ย 

Since 2005, road underdogs in games 32-82 are 67-57 SU and 95-27 ATS, assuming two factors:

  • The opponentโ€™s previous game margin falls between -7 and -4
  • The underdogโ€™s margin in the last meeting falls between +2 and +6

Shrink the sample down to games where the opponent finds itself amidst a two-game losing streak: 17-14 SU and 27-4 ATS.ย 

As a result, history likes the Sabres to, at minimum, stay within a goal against the Hurricanes on Thursday night.ย ย
