Rangers vs Panthers predictions
As we head into game 3, I'm expecting big things from Artemi Panarin, the Rangers' star left winger. Despite being listed as day-to-day with an injury, I think Panarin will still find a way to make an impact on the scoreboard. With 49 goals and 71 assists on the season, he's been the driving force behind the Rangers' offense all year. Look for him to continue that trend in this crucial matchup, potentially notching a goal and an assist.
On the other side of the ice, the Panthers will be relying on Sam Reinhart and Matthew Tkachuk to lead the charge. Reinhart's 57 goals on the season are a testament to his sniper-like ability, and I think he'll find the back of the net at least once in this game. Tkachuk, meanwhile, has been a setup mastermind all season, racking up 62 assists. I predict he'll add to that total in game 3, possibly setting up a Panthers goal or two.
So, with these predictions in mind, who's going to come out on top in game 3? I think the Panthers' high-powered offense will ultimately prove too much for the Rangers to handle. Despite the Rangers' strong regular season, I'm predicting a Panthers win in game 3, with the final score being something like 4-2 or 4-3 in favor of Florida. The current moneyline odds of FLA -160 seem about right to me, and I think the Panthers will justify that favorite status with a big win on the road.
