At first glance it doesn't look like Florida can hang with the Oilers but the Panthers have been the better team the past month. Edmonton's defense is suspect. It hasn't been great all year and of late it has looked downright terrible, surrendering 4.8 goals per game over their last six. Meanwhile Florida's has shored up. They have allowed more than three goals in a game just once in their last eight games and have held half of those opponents to two or less. This is good value on a team playing much better than their opponent.
