Florida Panthers vs San Jose Sharks Prediction

The Florida Panthers have been hit or miss these last few weeks, and they need Ekbald back in the lineup, but this is a spot they should win and win convincingly. Heck, the Panthers have won 11 straight games against the Sharks, and most of those games weren’t close. The Sharks haven’t beaten the Panthers since February 2017. The second John Wick was in theaters, the last time that happened. The San Jose Sharks have lost five straight games, they’re 8-15-1 on their home ice, and they’re getting drilled defensively. The Panthers should have a field day with the Sharks like they always do. Give me the Panthers and the PL for max betting value.
