Golden Knights vs Panthers Prediction & Pick

The Panthers have proven time and time again that they thrive under pressure as they are now 7-0 in games decided in overtime during the postseason. That's more victories that they have captured in regulation so far (6). Momentum is on their side, but that doesn't mean Game 4 will be an easy win.

Vegas outplayed Florida for a majority of Game 3, outshooting their opponent 27-23 and earning more power play opportunities (6 vs. 5). The Golden Knights have scored a pair of power play goals in each of the first three games of this series as the Panthers cannot figure out how to stop their attack.

Look for that statistic to make an impact in Game 4 as Florida has been the third-worst team in the playoffs when it comes to penalty kill percentage (69.6%). I'll back pros like Mark Stone and Jonathan Marchessault to guide a Vegas squad that has won seven of its last 10 road games to another victory.

Final Score Prediction: Golden Knights: 3 | Panthers: 2

Golden Knights vs Panthers Best Bet

Mark Stone has been at the forefront of the Golden Knights' offensive attack in each of the first three games of this series. After scoring a goal in Game 1, the 31-year-old logged an assist in Game 2 and then tallied a goal as well as an assist in Game 3. Stone has now recorded at least 1 point in 12 of Vegas' 20 playoff games and is torching Florida, making this prop bet worth backing at -140 odds.

Bet: Mark Stone to Record 1+ Point (-140)
