The Florida Panthers are starting to dream about playing in back-to-back finals having finished as the bridesmaid last season.

New York Rangers vs. Florida Panthers
Saturday, June 01, 2024 – 08:00 PM ET at Amerant Bank Arena
Sun to Shine in Florida
The Florida Panthers have grinded hard throughout this year’s playoffs. They now find themselves just one win away from going to a second Stanley Cup finals in a row.
The one chink in the Panthers’ armor at the moment is their home ice form. They have lost 3 of their previous 5 games. Both games in the Amerant Bank Arena during this series went to overtime, so naturally tonight we are betting on the Florida Panthers to win during regulation.
We believe the Panthers are starting to get stronger as this series and post-season goes on. While the NY Rangers are not done yet and have done well to make it this far, they seem to be struggling to keep pace with the Panthers, especially during the previous two games despite Florida winning on both occasions by a single goal.
The Pick
The Panthers will be looking to see this series out tonight. A loss would mean they travel to New York for the final game decider, which isn’t ideal. So, let’s take the Panthers to prove their worth and win this game in regulation at NHL betting odds of -105.
We believe this could be another one-goal victory, hence the reason we are reluctant to take the Panthers on the PK Line. Of course, betting on Florida on the moneyline is a solid choice, but we don’t like paying the -145 juice. We would bet the Panthers to win in regulation down to as low as -115.
