Betting on the Vegas Golden Knights (+1.5)
Regular Season Record: 51-22-9
After two games, it’s clear that the Golden Knights have the number of Florida. The series is still far from over, but we have seen nothing but dominance on both ends of the ice from Vegas, which won Game 2 at home on Monday, 7-2. Vegas has now scored 12 goals and allowed only four through two games in the 2023 NHL Stanley Cup Final. The Golden Knights’ advantage in terms of depth is showing off in the series. Vegas has outscored its opponents in its last three games by a total of 14 goals – the biggest goal differential in a three-game span in a single playoffs since 1997.
The Golden Knights are 6-1 in their last seven games after a victory.
Betting on the Florida Panthers (-1.5)
Regular Season Record: 42-32-8
Down 0-2 in this series, the Panthers still believe they can get up and win the Stanley Cup. Nothing is impossible in the eyes of Florida, which, if anyone needed to get reminded, won its first-round clash against the mighty Boston Bruins despite being down 1-3. The Panthers are also yet to play at home in this Stanley Cup Finals, so Thursday’s game is going to be a better barometer of where exactly Florida stands. The Panthers are still outshooting the Golden Knights in the series, 47-42 in 5-on-5 situations, so that’s a good sign. Watch out for the goalie decision of Florida, who pulled Sergei Bobrovsky in the middle of Game 2 in favor of Alex Lyon.
The Panthers Panthers are 6-2 in their last eight games after two days of rest.
Writer’s Prediction
The Panther swin, 4-2.
