Our Winnipeg Jets vs Florida Panthers Prediction
There is nothing about either team that suggests they will beat the other. Florida is probably the better team of the two, but Winnipeg could just as easily come out ahead in the end. In such a situation, there is only one bet to make—the TOTAL. History favors the OVER for both teams in this game, so I’ll go for it.
Our Florida vs. Winnipeg: OVER 5.5
