*Odds as of Saturday afternoon

Saturday’s NHL odds board is anchored by an outdoor hockey game between the Washington Capitals and Carolina Hurricanes.

In today’s Stadium Series matchup, the Canes are significant moneyline favorites against the Caps based on the the latest NHL odds, which isn’t all that surprising considering both teams’ records and the fact that Washington will be without Alex Ovechkin.

So with that absence priced into the latest line, what is the smartest way to bet Capitals vs. Hurricanes on Saturday night?

Using the Action Network’s PRO betting tools, we answer that very question by detailing the NHL pick that wiseguys are making for this Stadium Series matchup.

NHL Pick: Capitals vs. Hurricanes

The Hurricanes are big -195 favorites against the Capitals on Saturday night, but the value appears to be with Washington.

DraftKings Sportsbook opened the Caps at +175, and even without Ovechkin pros immediately found value in this number.

Sharps steamed Washington on Friday afternoon, kicking the moneyline down to around +160 depending on the shop.

Steam refers sudden, uniform line movement across the market that is often the result of bettors with the respect and resources to move odds getting down on the same side of the same game at multiple sportsbooks, all at once.

In addition, this price does vary a bit across the market, so be sure to visit the Action Network’s NHL Live Odds Page to lock in the best line possible.

For example, DraftKings is offering Washington at +160, while FanDuel is eight cents better at +168 as of the time of writing.

What is QuickSlip?

QuickSlip is an Action Network feature that allows users to automatically pre-load their bet slip at FanDuel Sportsbook.
