Predators vs Panthers prediction

I believe the Florida Panthers are the best team in the NHL and the team to beat for the cup. I also don’t bet against the Panthers much at home, where they’ve been great dating back to last season. With that said, we’re getting the Predators and plus money, and it’s hard to pass up. The Predators are 8-0-2 in their last 10 games and have been money making machines during that stretch. In fact, only the Canucks and Blues have earned more money this season than the Predators. The value is with the rod dog in this spot. Give me the Predators and the better price.
