Florida Panthers vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction: Bobrovsky can get an advantage

Prediction for the NHL Florida Panthers vs Carolina Hurricanes match which will take place on May 23rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available. 

Florida Panthers

Sergey Bobrovsky continues to perform wonders. Having dragged his team to the conference finals, the Russian goalkeeper remains in the leading role. In the series' first game, Bobrovsky made 63 saves in regular time and four in overtime. In the second game, the Russian had 37 reflected shots, resulting in only two goals for Florida to win – 2:1. The question of who will be the best player in this playoff has almost been resolved.

In addition to Bobrovsky, Matthew Tkachuk is worth mentioning separately in the Panthers. The forward scored the winning goal in the second match of the series with Carolina. Tkachuk has 18 points in this playoff according to the goal-pass system (7 +11), with a utility score of +12.

Carolina Hurricanes

Carolina strongly started the second match after losing the first game of the series with Florida. The Hurricanes quickly opened the scoring and attacked Bobrovsky 20 times in the first period. Surprisingly, the team could not score more than one goal and lost again – 1:2. It is impossible to say that Carolina did not finish something. Furthermore, the main reason for the Hurricanes' failures in the series' opening games is the phenomenal game of the Panthers goalkeeper Sergei Bobrovsky. If the Russian goalkeeper continues to play at the same level, it will be challenging to beat Florida for Carolina but for the team that will face the Panthers in the grand final.

Expert Betting Tips

Sergey Bobrovsky has not conceded more than two goals for seven consecutive games. Why should this series be interrupted in the upcoming game? There is no acceptable reason for this. The third match between Florida and Carolina will likely not be the most effective. Besides, we're betting on the Panthers here. Bobrovsky can get an advantage of three wins for his team.
