#43/44 ASA PLAY ON 8* OVER 5.5 Goals (-110) - Florida Panthers at Vegas Golden Knights, Saturday at 8 PM ET - Even eliminating OT goals, the Panthers have averaged scoring 3.2 goals per game in regulation time of their 12 post-season wins. The Golden Knights, again excluding OT, have averaged 4.3 goals in their dozen playoff victories required to reach this point. Look for the aggressive Panthers to try and get the jump on Vegas early. However, on home ice, Vegas is sure to bounce back strong. We are not sure Florida can hang on to an early lead but we look for a quick jump on enemy ice to lead a rather high-scoring game 1. Given the above, would not be surprised to see each club get to the 3-goal mark in regulation time. This total set at 5.5 goals makes good sense for sure but also is offering us excellent line value. Over is our play here.
