The Carolina Hurricanes (47-28-5) are looking to solidify their playoff positioning as they host the Montreal Canadiens (39-31-11). The Hurricanes have been inconsistent recently, going 1-5 in their last six games, but they remain a formidable team at home. Meanwhile, the Canadiens are coming off a strong stretch and will aim to carry that momentum into this matchup. Both teams have shown offensive firepower, with the total going over in six of Carolina's last eight games. Expect a competitive game as these two teams clash in Raleigh.

Aho has been a consistent offensive threat for the Hurricanes, and with Montreal's defense allowing goals in bunches recently, he is well-positioned to find the back of the net. Aho's ability to capitalize on power-play opportunities makes this a strong value play.

2. Nick Suzuki Over 2.5 Shots on Goal (-110)

Suzuki has been a key offensive contributor for the Canadiens, averaging over three shots per game in his last five outings. With Montreal likely playing from behind, expect Suzuki to be aggressive in generating scoring chances.

3. Brent Burns Over 0.5 Assists (+120)
