The current betting odds have the Panthers listed as a slight underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Panthers are off to a good start this season after going to the Stanley Cup Finals last year and losing to the Vegas Golden Knights. The Panthers are 7-4-1 right now but they have been really good in their home games with their 4-1-0 home record. Meanwhile, the Hurricanes have had a really good team over the last few years and are off to another good start this season with their 8-5-0 record overall, but they are also 4-5-0 in their road games this season as they continue their road troubles from previous years. The Panthers enter this game as the defending Eastern Conference champions and they have all the value with them for the way they have been playing in their home games and the Hurricanes in their road games. The best way to place a bet here is on the Panthers to win this game.
