Properly the Toronto Maple Leafs exited the playoffs by getting completely destroyed by the Panthers.
Though they might have a good quantity of respectable complaints from the primary two video games, there are not any excuses for the way it all performed out – significantly Sport 5 and seven. They’ve tried every part else; time to interrupt up that core. What a pitiful efficiency that was in Sport 7.
Neither of us received our bets for the sequence. Scott had the Leafs to win, and I had the Panthers -1.5 for the sequence. It was in all probability an incredible sequence consequence for the sportsbooks of the world. “Makes you suppose”, as Matt Le Tissier would say.
The Florida Panthers will now meet the Carolina Hurricanes within the Japanese Convention finals, which we’ll cowl at present after which tomorrow, that Oilers/Stars sequence.
Hurricanes vs Panthers Sequence Betting Ideas
Scott: The Canes obtained to the Japanese Convention Finals by beating the banged up Devils in 5 video games, 2 of these video games went to double additional time, after which beating the Capitals within the 2nd spherical additionally in 5 video games.
They’ve been led by Aho, Jarvis, Svechnikov, Gostisbehere, Corridor and Blake. They are going to by no means get the credit score that they deserve and that’s as a result of model of play they play however Slavin and Orlov arre essential to any success the Canes have.
Andersen has been strong as traditional and has performed in all video games however 2.
The Panthers obtained right here by beating their rivals the Lightning in 5 video games after which the Maple Leafs in 7.
The don’t like drained in any respect after successful the Cup final season. They’re led by Reinhart, Tkachuk, Verhaeghe, Bennett, Marchand, Lundell and Barkov. They’ve so many depth guys it has to make the league jealous. The have Jones, Ekblad, Luostarinen, Schmidt the record goes on and on.
Bobrovsky has performed every recreation for the Panthers within the postseason.
With the Canes model of play they need to give the Panthers a run for his or her cash however I believe the expertise the Panthers have goes to hold them to the finals for the third 12 months in a row.

Graeme: There’s something totally different about this Canes staff this 12 months I really feel. I’ve been a giant fan of them for fairly just a few years now, primarily attributable to my forage into superior metrics. That type of factor goes hand in hand, because the Canes are a juggernaut in these, and have been for years.
However there’s something about this staff this 12 months that I’m actually liking, and getting cup vibes from.
This will likely be far their greatest take a look at – however I do suppose the Panthers are there for the taking. The Leafs mainly handed them two video games. Tampa simply by no means appeared in it.
By the metrics – each groups have glorious CF/60 so its fairly shut there. Related with FF/60. Panthers capturing much less however scoring extra, however the Canes have a sensational xGF/60 of three.79. They ave sadly worse in xGA/60 and SCGF/60.
So whereas I just like the Canes, probably the most off-putting facet about it’s how reliant they’re on goaltending. A GA/60 of 1.66 with an xGA/60 of two.85. Their protection must step up. The brilliant spot for them is they’ll rating, and likewise create greater than the Panthers. And Bob has regarded very cold and hot.
I believe at over 2.00 odds, I’m comfortable to position the cube on the Canes. Right here’s why:
– If the goaltending continues, then this sequence is over with. No query.
– If the goaltending doesn’t proceed, the Canes are nonetheless making a ton of possibilities, and might win that approach. I’m actually not bought on Bob this 12 months.
I will likely be sincere in that I’m much less assured within the Canes after trying on the metrics, however hey it might be good to see the Panthers and their soiled ass gamers lose. Particular issues over the common season performances between the groups. Honestly I believe that is in all probability a 0EV guess at greatest. And one I remorse the extra I look so let’s wrap this up and simply take a deep breath and go together with it.
