Edmonton Oilers vs Florida Panthers Game 7 Pick & Preview – 6/24/2024
The Edmonton Oilers are set to face off against the Florida Panthers in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final on June 24, 2024, at 8:00 pm ET. Initially considered underdogs, the Oilers hold -108 odds, while the Panthers stand at -112. The betting action has been split, with Edmonton garnering 53% of moneyline bets and Florida holding onto 47%. The opening total of 5.5 has seen a majority of bets leaning towards the over, with 91% in favor, leaving only 9% for the under. This matchup promises to be an exciting battle on the ice between these two competitive teams, with the Stanley Cup on the line.
Going into Oilers vs Panthers Game 7, the Oilers have won three straight games after initially falling behind 3-0 in the series. With both teams having a three-game winning streak in this series already, which direction this game will go in is anyone's guess. The Oilers clearly have the momentum going into Game 7, while the Panthers have home-ice advantage and were the favorites going into the series. But there are a few key factors that could end up deciding this game and this series tonight.
For the Oilers, the key to this game will be getting off to a fast start and taking the crowd out of the game early. Connor McDavid racked up eight points combined across Games 4 and 5 of the series. If he and the rest of the Oilers attack can find a way to get on the board early, they can tilt things in their favor and silence what should be a raucous group of fans in Florida.
Meanwhile, the key to this game for the Panthers will be finding a way to get something going on the power play. The Oilers have been killing penalties with remarkable consistency throughout the last couple of rounds of the playoffs. Should Florida fail to generate any scoring on the power play here, they will end up becoming a rare case where a team blows a 3-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Our best bet for this game is for the Oilers to win Game 7 and to claim the Stanley Cup for Canada. No Canadian team has won a Stanley Cup since 1993 and that should change tonight as the Oilers have done a phenomenal job of killing penalties and forcing the Panthers to beat them when things are at even strength. Look for that to continue and for Connor McDavid to win the Conn Smythe Trophy when all is said and done.
