Before the start of the series, bookmakers gave roughly equal odds in this pairing, even with a slight advantage in favour of Carolina, who reached the third round more confidently, having defeated New Jersey and Washington in five games. Carolina was the No. 4 seed after the regular season.
But in reality, Florida was much better prepared for the semifinals, not giving any chances in the first three games (2:5, 0:5, 6:2). So today the series may end, Carolina still can not get it together, and Bobrovsky is an insurmountable obstacle to take the goal. But still bet on pucks, we expect a lot of them, as this game may be the last, Carolina will play for broke.
Prediction: at least 5 goals to be scored. We recommend the "Over 4.5" bet, odds 1.53
