🚨 Logan Thompson Over 27.5 saves ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Hurricanes shoot more than any other team. It's part of their DNA under Rod Brind'Amour's stewardship. They have the most shots per game (34.9) and the most on home ice (42.3). Carolina had 33 shots in Game 1 and 28 in Game 2, with Logan Thompson hitting the Over in the former and falling one save short in the latter.

🚨 Dylan Strome Over 0.5 assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Strome notched a helper in five of seven playoff games thus far, including in Game 2. With seven assists in as many games, he has offered one of the most reliable and profitable props in the postseason. While goals and chances will undoubtedly be challenging to come by at Lenovo Centre, I'm still surprised by the plus-money odds bet365 offers.

💰 Best odds: +120 via bet365
