Vegas’ 5-2 win in game one was their sixth win in the last eight head-to-head meetings between these two teams.
Trends
Florida is 11-2 in their last 13 games overall and 12-2 in their last 14 road games while the under is 8-2 in their last 10 games overall. Vegas is 35-16 in their last 51 games overall and 39-19 in their last 58 games against a team with a winning record while the over is 4-1 in their last 5 home games.
Pick
I’m sticking with Vegas here. I get it, Florida went on a tear on the road and it’s not often they’ll lose back-to-back games on the road, but Vegas just took it to the Panthers in game one and it’s been a while since we’ve seen the Panthers have to pick themselves up off of the mat. I definitely think they’re capable of doing it, but I think that’ll come at home. Until then, I have to ride with Vegas at home here.
