FLA Preview – Bobrovsky Leads Panthers at Home
The Panthers are playing strong hockey at home. They’ve won two straight in the series, including a blowout in Game 3. Goalie Sergei Bobrovsky made 32 saves in that win and has been solid all postseason.
Florida has played well in the third period, cashing the under in 22 of their last 51 home games in the final frame. Their defense has slowed down Edmonton’s top skaters. Sam Bennett and the top line have created pressure and scoring chances.
They will look to stay aggressive early and control the pace. Florida is favored at -145 and has the momentum heading into Game 4. They’ll try to go up 3-1 before heading back to Edmonton.
EDM Preview – Oilers Need a Bounce Back
Edmonton struggled in Game 3, losing 6-1 after a strong start to the series. They now trail 2-1 and are looking to even things back up. The Oilers have hit the third-period under in 49 of their last 105 games.
Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl have been quiet, and the offense needs to step up. Adam Henrique and Darnell Nurse have long-shot props to score, but production from the top line will be key if they want to tie the series.
Edmonton’s defense has to limit Florida’s rush chances. The Oilers are listed around +128 as road underdogs. If they can fix their defensive coverage, they have the talent to bounce back.
Betting Prediction
Florida is the favorite at -145, with the total set at 6.0. The last game went over, and public bettors are heavily leaning that way again—72% on the over. The Panthers have home ice and goaltending edge, but Edmonton is expected to come out focused.
Expect a tighter game than the last one. The Oilers should make adjustments and keep this one close. A 3-2 type finish wouldn’t be a surprise. With both teams trending toward the third-period under, the full game under 6.0 is a strong lean. Florida is in better form, so they are the pick to win Game 4 again.
Pick: Panthers -145, Under 6.0
