New York secured a 2-1 series lead after a tough 5-4 triumph in Game 3, as the Rangers battled hard. Despite the Panthers’ two goals in the third period that pushed the game into overtime, it was Alex Wennberg who ultimately clinched the victory for New York with his first postseason goal at 5:35 in the extra frame.

Will New York be able to secure a 3-1 lead after tonight’s game, or will Florida level the series before it heads back to Madison Square Garden?

As we delve into my Game 4 predictions and top bets, it’s important to note that tonight’s Rangers vs. Panthers matchup presents numerous NHL betting possibilities.

Rangers vs Panthers NHL Game 4 Predictions & Pick (5/28)

With a chance to take a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Rangers are feeling the heat. Despite their recent back-to-back wins, both in overtime, some argue that they could have easily found themselves trailing 3-0. Still, momentum is favoring the Rangers at this crucial stage.

However, it is important to note that the Rangers are currently leading and are determined to maintain their recent record of success on the road. In fact, Peter Laviolette’s team has emerged victorious in 10 out of their last 12 away games, scoring a total of 51 goals while only conceding 36. It is also worth mentioning their impressive power-play success rate of 36.7% during this period.

Despite the Panthers’ recent success at home, with a 9-3 record in their last 12 games at Amerant Bank Arena, they have also experienced a decline, losing three out of their last four home games dating back to the previous round.

The Panthers have also struggled with a record of 3-6 straight up in their previous nine games against the Metropolitan Division.

The Panthers must figure out how to win at home if they want to avoid falling into a bigger series hole. 

Despite the challenges, the Panthers have had some positive moments in this series. They have performed well on special teams, converting 3 out of 11 power play opportunities (27.3%), and have successfully defended against all eight of the Rangers’ power play chances. Additionally, Florida has outscored New York 4-0 in the third period of these games, suggesting that improving their starts could give them the upper hand in the long run.

The Panthers could benefit from a strong comeback by Sergei Bobrovsky. Despite allowing five goals on 23 shots in Game 3, it’s important to remember that he saved 52 out of 54 attempts (96.3%) in the first two games.

However, Igor Shesterkin has proven to be excellent for the Rangers, maintaining an impressive 2.13 goals-against average and a .922 save percentage up to this point.

And while Shesterkin could easily steal the show tonight, I’m taking the Panthers to even the series. Florida nearly won Games 2 and 3, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the host team evens things up tonight — especially if special teams continue to work in their favor. Don’t be surprised if this series goes the full seven games.

I’ll also be taking the Under on the 5.5-goal total. Although these teams combined for nine goals on Sunday, the first two encounters saw three goals apiece. I also see Bobrobsky and Shesterkin bouncing back after lackluster performances in Game 3, so try not to be shocked if there aren’t a ton of fireworks.

Best Rangers vs Panthers NHL Game 4 Player Prop (5/28)

While there are plenty of solid Rangers vs. Panthers Game 4 props available, I’m taking Alexis Lafrenière to record at least one point (-104) for my favorite pick.

In Game 3, Lafrenière showed his brilliance by breaking a four-game streak without any points and scoring two goals. The talented player, who was chosen first overall, has now accumulated a total of 11 points in his last nine away games. Remarkably, he has managed to contribute at least one point in four out of the last five games.

Lafrenière has been consistently scoring in three consecutive visits to Amerant Bank Arena, making it highly likely for him to find the back of the net once more tonight.
