NHL Parlay: Lightning vs. Panthers SGP for Monday, April 28
- Florida Panthers ML
- Nikita Kucherov 3+ Shots on Goal
- Brayden Point 2+ Shots on Goal
Florida Panthers ML
Florida opened the series by stealing a pair of games in Tampa Bay. The Lightning bounced back with a comfortable 5-1 road win on Saturday afternoon.
On Monday, the Panthers will take it back on their home ice.
I would be stunned if Florida dropped back-to-back games at home. The Panthers were one of the best home teams in the NHL this season, with a 27-14 SU record.
Tampa has posted a road record of 18-23 SU this season.
Nikita Kucherov 3+ SOG
The veteran is in a strong position to cash this prop on Monday. Nikita Kucherov has collected just four shots in the first three games of this series.
The 31-year-old is due for a strong bounce-back performance. Before the three-game drought, Kucherov cashed this prop in three consecutive games.
Brayden Point 2+ SOG
We'll sip on juice to close out this parlay.
Point is 3-for-3 in this series in terms of cashing this prop, and I'll do so once again on Monday. The center has averaged 20:26 minutes per game in the series, which bodes well for this prop.
