Florida Panthers vs. Chicago Blackhawks Prediction
I’m on the Panthers here. I don’t love the price with the Panthers on the road, but at the end of the day, the Panthers are the more trustworthy team as goal-scoring for Chicago has been hard to come by in recent games and I think this could end up being a problem for the Blackhawks. Give me Florida here.
