Florida Panthers vs. Edmonton Oilers Prediction

I’m on the under here. The over is 4 for 4 so far in this series, but this is the biggest game of the series by far. Sergei Bobrovsky can be on point when he’s on, and Calvin Pickard was locked in before the goal that forced OT with 20 seconds to go. I think this ends up being the first under of the series in a first to 3 wins kind of game. Give me the under.
