UPDATE: Added a prediction for who will win tonight.
Hurricanes vs Flyers Game 4 prediction tonight
Who will win Hurricanes vs Flyers Game 4?
Hurricanes: Philadelphia doesn’t have the high-end talent or depth to hang with Carolina, and it’s been on full display, with the Hurricanes posting a 59.1 Corsi For percentage and a 55.6 expected goals percentage while allowing just a single five-on-five goal to take a 3-0 series lead.
Additionally, there’s plenty of room for Carolina starter Frederik Andersen’s otherworldly .957 postseason save percentage to dip without necessarily flipping the script in Philadelphia’s favor.
Hurricanes vs Flyers best bet: Hurricanes moneyline (-175)
The Philadelphia Flyers have had absolutely no answer for Carolina Hurricanes Conn Smythe candidate Frederick Andersen.
Andersen is sporting an elite .957 save percentage and 1.385 goals saved above expected per 60 minutes in the playoffs, and there’s plenty of room for those numbers to dip before it becomes problematic for the Hurricanes.
Carolina has dominated five-on-five possession with a 59.1 Corsi For percentage and has also won the expected goals battle at 55.6% through three games. With the Hurricanes ranking higher in both special teams, my numbers are showing value all the way through to -200.
Philadelphia can’t match the high-end talent or depth jumping the boards for Carolina, and the numbers couldn't paint a clearer picture.
Hurricanes vs Flyers Game 4 same-game parlay
In addition to Andersen’s highlighted strong play, Philly netminder Dan Vladar has been sharp with a .921 SV% and 0.856 GSAx/60. There have also only been 13 goals through three games, and Carolina has played to the Under in six of seven postseason contests.
Hurricanes go-to center Sebastian Aho rounds out the SGP, averaging 1.55 points per 60 minutes in the playoffs, which checks in well below his high-end 3.12 mark across the past three regular seasons.

Hurricanes vs Flyers Game 4 goal scorer pick
Andrei Svechnikov (+225)
Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov finally found the back of the net in Game 3 for his first goal of the postseason, and I’m doubling down here given his 4.4% shooting percentage remains well below his 15.3% regular-season mark.
Svechnikov also plays top offensive minutes and has racked up a rock-solid 3.39 individual expected goals and 28 scoring chances through seven games.
