Edmonton Oilers vs Florida Panthers Prediction

The Panthers have had games throughout the playoffs where they don’t bring much energy, and a lot of those games have been at home. So with their season on the line, it wouldn’t be shocking to see the Oilers take advantage. However, the Panthers have now won six of the last eight games against the Oilers, and many of the games in this series weren’t close. In fact, you can argue the Panthers should have already wrapped this series up.

From the beginning, I said the Panthers were the team to beat as they check all of the boxes for a championship team, and we’re too deep to turn back now. The Panthers have won 20 of their last 27 games as a home favorite. When the Panthers are locked in and being aggressive offensively, there’s a gap between these teams, mainly due to the depth. I’ll lay the juice, as Sunrise sees back-to-back cups.
