On the other side of this matchup is the Panthers who sit with a 2-0 series lead and after knocking off the Boston Bruins in the first round, they are in good shape to win this series too. Anton Ludell had a nice game finishing with one goal and one assists. The big key for this Panthers team is they haven’t been giving up, and this series has been a perfect example.

Shane’s Free Pick

There is no confidence for the Maple Leafs right now and they are going to really struggle in this game. The Maple Leafs defense has been an issue and now Matthew Knies is out for a couple of games with a concussion. Florida will have no issue scoring here, and they will get the job done. Back the Panthers on the money line.
