The Hurricanes defeated the Red Wings, 2-1, this past Sunday. Carolina is the No. 2 scoring team in the NHL averaging 3.4 goals per game. The Hurricanes had scored 3 or more goals in seven consecutive games until Sunday. Detroit ranks 29th defensively giving up 3.4 goals per game.
So, yes, I'm expecting more goals from the Hurricanes in this one. But I'm also expecting Detroit to hold up its bargain in getting this total to go Over. 
The Red Wings entered Sunday's matchup against Carolina off a season-high six goal game against Tampa Bay this past Thursday. The Red Wings, however, strangely were passive for the first two periods before opening things up more in the third period when they scored their lone goal. 
Detroit coach Jeff Blashill ripped into his team for its lack of offense. Having Dylan Larkin back from injury is a huge plus for Detroit's offense. 
The combination of the Hurricanes' high-scoring attack and the Red Wings coming out with a stronger scoring mentality should push this total Over.
