The Bets of the Day are brought to you by NHL odds site Betway!
Welcome back to another edition of the Betway Bets of the day. All bets are for one unit unless otherwise noted.
Our lone bet of the day will be taking o6.5 goals between the LA Kings and Florida Panthers. These odds sit at -125.
Both these teams have seen some defensive struggles as of late. The Panthers have allowed 4.51 goals against per hour in all situations over their last five games, the worst rate in the league, while scoring the same amount in the best rate of the league. The Kings, meanwhile, have allowed 3.59 goals against per hour in their last five, the sixth worst rate in the league, while scoring 2.19 goals per hour over that stretch, the fifth worst rate in the league.
Look for a big night of offence between these two clubs who are trying to find consistencies in their game.
