FLA Panthers Win-180BOS Bruins @ FLA Panthers

Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals between the Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers is here. Game 1 brought us an extremely shocking result, in a 5-1 thumping by the Bruins on the road. Boston is a good team, but a result like this would have never been expected. Florida will need a major bounce back effort so the Panthers don’t head on the road down 0-2 in the series.

The sense of urgency factor in this game clearly favors the home team. Florida easily took care of business in the first round, and with extra rest, they were caught flat footed in the series opener against Boston. Now that they have an embarrassing effort out of the way, I think they will quickly remind the Bruins why they are one of the best teams in the entire NHL. Florida has arguably the deepest team in the league, with all-star talent, grit, and a Vezina-caliber goaltender. Their home building will also be very loud, supplying extra energy for the game’s entirety. Florida’s offense is too powerful to be shut down that easily, so I expect this game to play out much differently than their previous one. Let’s back Florida to win this game and even the series.

Panthers ML (-180) available at time of publishing. Playable to -190.

Where To Wager On Your NHL Best Bets

NHL games, as with all major US sports will have a multitude of markets available for every game offered by all leading online sportsbooks.

Alongside the importance of being selective in your wagering, and managing your bankroll, right up there with the most important factors in successful NHL bets are the odds and betting lines.

NHL is a major US sport and as such sees a great deal of betting turnover with online sportsbooks. As a result, sportsbooks are keen to out-compete one another, and the way they do this is by trying to offer the best odds, spreads, or betting offers.

NHL picks and odds are most similarly compared to MLB picks and odds in that the puck line is set at +/- 1.5, as the run line is in baseball, and it’s the odds that change rather than the lines.

With this, it’s vital to shop the odds for your NHL best bets, as you can see a huge difference in potential payout from placing a wager at one sportsbook as opposed to another. 

All of our NHL picks are accompanied by the best available odds and which online sportsbooks are offering them, but these odds are dynamic and can change.

If you don’t yet have an account with one of the sportsbooks listed as having the best odds, why not check out our bonuses page to see the latest promo codes available and get off to a flyer with a great sign-up bonus?
