Fanatics Sportsbook promo for Stanley Cup Playoffs: Hurricanes vs. Capitals Game 2 predictions, odds
Game 1 between the Washington Capitals and the Carolina Hurricanes appeared a lot closer than it was. Although the final score was 2-1 in favor of the Hurricanes, the box score shows that Carolina could have won this contest going away. The Canes outshot the Caps, 33-14, and they created 60 more shot attempts than Washington. The expected goals ended 4.2 to 2.5 in favor of Carolina. Will Game 2 look any different? Or will the Caps find their legs and send this series to Raleigh tied at one? Fanatics Sportsbook promo for Stanley Cup Playoffs Fanatics Sportsbook is offering new users a $1,000 No Sweat First Bet sign-up bonus or a bet $30 and receive $300 in bonus bets promotion. Hurricanes vs. Capitals Game 2 betting preview The knock on the Hurricanes for the past three seasons has been that they have to work extremely hard to generate their scoring chances, and they don't have the finishing talent to execute on the opportunities that they do create. That showed in Game 1, as the Canes didn't get on the scoreboard until the third period and needed overtime to dispatch the Caps despite generating 90 shot attempts. Betting on the NHL? It's hard not to be impressed with the way Carolina played in Game 1 but, at the same time, you have to imagine that the Caps will improve and close the gap, which shrinks the margin for error even more for the Canes. Hurricanes vs. Capitals Game 2 pick The Capitals will need to make some adjustments, but there are some options available to Spencer Carbery to give his team more punch at 5-on-5. Aliaksei Protas got on the board Tuesday, and he should be in line to move up the lineup after playing his second game since returning from injury. Carolina's Logan Stankoven prepares to shoot in Game 1 against the Washington Capitals. NHLI via Getty Images Protas notched 30 goals in the regular season, and pushing him up to play with Dylan Strome and Alex Ovechkin or Pierre-Luc Dubois and Tom Wilson would give the Caps more scoring punch. The price on Protas to get on the board again looks quite tempting for Game 2.

NHL playoff Game 1 results: Hurricanes beat Capitals in OT
NHL playoff Game 1 results: Hurricanes beat Capitals in OT Show Caption Hide Caption Can the Florida Panthers really go back-to-back? With a dominant roster and playoff experience, the Panthers are poised to make a strong run at back-to-back Stanley Cup titles. Sports Pulse Jacob Slavin's goal 3:06 into overtime gave the Carolina Hurricanes a 2-1 victory Tuesday over the host Washington Capitals in Game 1 of their Stanley Cup Playoff second-round matchup. The defenseman's first overtime playoff goal came on the Hurricanes' 94th shot attempt of the game (their 33rd on net). Logan Stankoven scored his third goal of the postseason and Jesperi Kotkaniemi set it up. Jordan Martinook and Dmitry Orlov assisted on the game-winner. Frederik Andersen made 13 saves in his first action since leaving in the second period of Game 4 of Carolina's first-round series with the New Jersey Devils on April 27. Aliaksei Protas scored his first career playoff goal for the Capitals, with Brandon Duhaime and John Carlson earning assists. Thompson, meanwhile, stopped 31 shots while under pressure all night. Carolina set the tone in the first period, outshooting the Capitals 12-5. None went past Thompson, though, as just three of those came from near the net. Washington also blocked 15 shot attempts in the period and had 32 for the game. Despite that control, it was the Capitals who struck first 3:52 into the second. Carlson cleared the puck from the Carolina attack zone and Duhaime was able to spring Protas, who skated along the boards and beat the drawn-out netminder on a wrist shot from the right circle. Protas scored in just his second game back after recovering from a deep cut he suffered to his left foot in an April 4 game against the Chicago Blackhawks. The goal did not change the style of play as the Hurricanes continued to pepper shot attempts. They had 70 through the first two periods. However, it took a turnover near the Capitals' net midway through the third period that allowed the Hurricanes to even the score. Kotkaniemi got the puck after Capitals defenseman Alexander Alexeyev lost it in the left faceoff circle. The Finnish forward found Stankoven in the slot, and the 22-year-old, acquired in the Mikko Rantanen trade two months ago, capitalized on the Capitals' mistake with 10:18 left in regulation. Carolina won despite losing center Mark Jankowski, who sustained an undisclosed injury. Jankowski, appearing in his third game of this year's playoffs, was last on the ice with 4:42 remaining in the second period.
