Score Stopping Skinner versus Brick Wall Bobrovsky
Goaltending Both Edmonton and Florida are capable of scoring five or six times in a game as well as their goaltenders playing nearly perfect in net.
Will the netminders control the series or will the powerful offenses find their mark? I suppose if we were to ask Forrest Gump he would reply, “a little bit of both”, but that seems wishy washy to me, and as a hockey fanaticus I have to go with my gut instinct on who will win the Stanley Cup. (Buffalo Winter SC prediction: Florida Sweeps)
Florida Panthers’ Sergei Bobrovsky Started 17 games winning 12, earning one shutout while posting 2.20 goals against average playing at a .908 save percentage.
Edmonton Oilers’ Stuart Skinner Started 16 games winning 11, earning one shutout while posting 2.50 goals against average playing at a .897 save percentage.
Stanley Cup Champion Goaltender At first glance your supposition could be that Florida has the edge in net.
But as fans we know at times statistics can be misleading as highlighted by the disparity in SOG that has occurred during these playoffs with teams winning by barely producing 10 or 12 SOG for the entire game.

It is certainly very true that statistics can be misleading (for example, look at how much controversy Corsi statistics used to generate) but on the surface I think it’s interesting to see that the two goalie have (what I could call) close save percentages.
I think that the Panthers will take the game tonight but then after that the two teams will jockey back and forth until the series come to an end.
