Randy’s Free Pick

The Florida Panthers are on the end of a back to back, spots they've had zero success recently. The Pittsburgh Penguins are showing signs of getting things back in order, and them having the rest advantage with a better defense makes them a worthwhile pick. This is a tough schedule spot for the Panthers after playing in New York and now going to Pittsburgh. Give me the home team and the cheap price.
