<h2>Leg 1: Florida Panthers Moneyline (-137)</h2>
<ul>
<li>The Panthers advanced to the Stanley Cup Final after taking down the New York Rangers in six games, and the Oilers also handled the Dallas Stars in six games. </li>
<li>The Panthers are a slight home favorite with some juice on the moneyline for Game 1 at -137. </li>
<li>The Panthers are 6-3 as the home team in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs. </li>
<li>Although the Oilers took care of business against a Stars team that&#8217;s similarly built to Florida, the Panthers are a different beast. </li>
<li>With time off for both teams ahead of Game 1, this should favor the Panthers with their physical style of play. Look for the home side to open up the series with a tight victory in Game 1. </li>

<h2>Leg 2: Under 5.5 Total Goals (-102)</h2>
<ul>
<li>Despite both teams having plenty of star power, it shouldn&#8217;t be a surprise if we see this series be a low-scoring one, especially early on. </li>
<li>With some time off ahead of Game 1, expect some rust from both sides, which could limit the scoring on Saturday night. </li>
<li>In addition, the Oilers and Panthers are two of the top teams in the NHL at suppressing scoring chances, which should create a low-scoring atmosphere. </li>
<li>As the teams feel each other out in Game 1, we&#8217;ll side with the value the under 5.5 is presenting at -102. </li>

<h2>Leg 3: Matthew Tkachuk to Record 1+ Point (-210)</h2>
<ul>
<li>If there&#8217;s one player you can count on for the Florida Panthers in a big game that will drag his teammates into the fight, it&#8217;s <a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/nhl/players/matthew-tkachuk/4061">Matthew Tkachuk</a>. </li>
<li>Tkachuk has had another dominant playoff run for the Panthers, recording 19 points in 17 playoff games. </li>
<li>Tkachuk went quiet late in the series against the Rangers, recording no points over his final two games. </li>
<li>With the talent Tkachuk brings to the table, we&#8217;re expecting a big performance in Game 1 from him after some snake-bitten luck to close out the Eastern Conference Final. </li>
<li>Although there&#8217;s some real juice on the number, Tkachuk recording one or more points to close out the parlay is a solid closing leg at -210. </li>
</ul>
<h2>Total Value = +368</h2>
