The Panthers are 8-2 on the Road this Postseason.

Edmonton is 12-4 in the Postseason—12-2 after a 0-2 start vs the Kings—and has outscored opponents 65-45 with Skinner’s improved play between the pipes key.
Who Won the 2024 Stanley Cup Finals?
The Panthers won this matchup last year, 4-3 with that crucial Game 7 at Sunrise.

Florida was outscored by Edmonton 23-18 in that series which saw the Oilers win Game 4 in Edmonton by an 8-1 scoreline. ****A rarity in the NHL Stanley Cup Finals saw a player on the losing team, Connor McDavid, win the Conn Smythe MVP. McDavid is listed at +120 (bet $100, win $120) to repeat as MVP with Panthers netminder Sergei Bobrovsky at +250.
Teams from the US have won the last 30 Stanley Cups, so this is huge for Edmonton.
