Stanley Cup Best Bet 2024
Florida Panthers (-130)
WAGER: 1 Unit • DraftKings Sportsbook
The Florida Panthers have reached the Stanley Cup Final for the second consecutive year and are looking to win it all this time around.
Florida has been one of the best teams all year long, so it’s no surprise to see them back in the Final. The Panthers are the more well-rounded team, led by forwards Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk.
- See who we think will win the 2024 Conn Smythe Trophy.
We saw Florida dominate the Rangers in the Eastern Conference Finals. Quite frankly, that series should have been over in fewer than six games.
This time around, the Panthers have home-ice advantage against the Oilers, which could prove to be the difference in this series.
The argument favoring the Oilers is that they have the best player in the world in Connor McDavid along with another elite forward in Leon Draisaitl and a lethal power play.
But the Panthers are deeper and have the advantage in goal with Sergei Bobrovsky over Stuart Skinner. It’s hard to see this team losing the Stanley Cup Final for a second year in a row.
The Panthers look hungry to take care of business this time. Look for Florida to get it done in six games.
