Florida Panthers vs Vegas Golden Knights expert picks

Panthers vs Golden Knights money line pick: Golden Knights ML (-176)

The Panthers are down to their last life as they go down 3-1 in the Stanley Cup Finals after a 3-2 defeat to the Golden Knights on home ice this past Saturday night. The Panthers will have to play a perfect game tonight if they want to extend this series. Bobrovsky will need to put the team on his back for the Panthers to have a chance. Look for Matthew Tkachuk to shake things up tonight and try to get under the Golden Knights player’s skin. A lot of things must go right for the Panthers tonight if they want to keep their season alive.

The Golden Knights are one win away from their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. The Golden Knights have been getting the job done in all aspects of the game. Having depth throughout their whole lineup, the Panthers have been having a lot of trouble trying to break down this Golden Knights team. The Golden Knights are also sacrificing a lot more by doubling the number of blocked shots of the Panthers from 30 to 15. With the Stanley Cup in attendance tonight in Vegas, look for the Golden Knights to get the job done tonight behind their fans.

Panthers vs Golden Knights over/under total goals pick: Over 5.5 (-124)

We have seen the total go over in 2 of the 4 games so far in this Stanley Cup Final. With every game having the chance to go over with many scoring chances coming from both teams, the goaltending has been top-notch. Florida Panthers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 28 of 31 shots for a .903 save percentage in game 4. While Golden Knights goalie Adin Hill stopped 29 of 31 shots for a .935 save percentage. The Panthers will have to take some chances tonight with their season on the line. Expect that to open up a lot of scoring chances throughout the game. Take the over at 5.5 goals.
