The Carolina Hurricanes are odds-on favorites to win the Stanley Cup after they took a 3-2 series lead thanks to their win at home in Game 2. The Vegas Golden Knights will face a do-or-die Game 6 at home in T-Mobile Center, as they look to push it to a Game 7.
This series has been a back-and-forth affair, with multiple games seeing multi-goal comebacks. Carolina opened as the favorite, before Vegas took over the mantle, but Carolina reclaimed favored status after Game 4.
