Hurricanes vs Bruins
Frederik Andersen will miss the first game of the series, and possibly more. Antti Raanta will start between the pipes for the ‘Canes to begin the series, and while he has been solid this year, I don’t think he will be able to withstand the onslaught of pucks a healthy Bruins team will sling at him. Whoever Boston goes with in net, Jeremy Swayman or Linus Ullmark, will be able to keep Boston in the series. Andersen is expected back at some point so I think that Carolina will weather the storm until he returns.
My Picks: Carolina to win series -120, Carolina to win series 4-3 +450, Boston to win Game 1/Carolina to win series +450
