NHL playoffs betting tips: Odds, lines, how to bet on Capitals-Hurricanes Game 7

In today's SportsbookWire Best Bets series, we focus on Wednesday's one-game slate that features another Game 7 and the completion of the first round of the 2018-19 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Carolina Hurricanes at Washington Capitals

Moneyline: The sportsbooks are siding with Washington's experience at -155. Carolina has defied the odds to get this far and has been the dominant team in the series in terms of the possession metrics. Pick the underdog Hurricanes once more at +135.

Against the spread: Carolina is just -230 to keep it a one-goal game. Take the value with the outright win, instead.

Over/under: Four of six games in the series and each of the past two have gone OVER Wednesday's total of 5.5. Roll with the offense once more at +100.
