| NHL | (75) Montreal Canadiens at (76) Carolina Hurricanes: Total | 8:00pm EDT - May 29/2026 |
The PLAY: Total Under 5.5 (-106)
This matchup has the feel of another tight, low‑event game because Carolina has dictated the tempo of this entire series with their structure, and Montreal hasn’t shown they can consistently break through it. Only two of Carolina’s playoff games have topped six goals, and their postseason contests are averaging just 4.67 goals overall. Montreal came out hot with six goals in Game 1, but since then they’ve managed only four total across the last three games, and Carolina’s ability to jump on teams early and then lock things down has been a recurring theme — they scored three in the first period last game and then allowed it to settle into their defensive rhythm the rest of the way. The Hurricanes have surrendered just 1.67 goals per game in the playoffs, backed by the league’s best shot‑suppression numbers, while Montreal’s offense has been stuck in mud against that pressure. With Carolina controlling possession, limiting chances, and continuing to smother Montreal’s attack, this projects as another grinder where goals come at a premium.
