Florida Panthers vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction
The Philadelphia Flyers continue to be underactive and their defense lets them down more times than not. The Florida Panthers are starting to get healthy and they’ve won 6 straight games. Considering the Panthers have done much of this without some of their best players in the mix, you can argue Florida remains the best team in the league. I’m not trying to step in front of the Panthers, especially on their home ice. Give me the Panthers and the PL for max betting value.
