Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on December 17. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Edmonton has finally improved, and watching them play is a pleasure. The team looks great and recently had eight straight wins, seven of which were in regulation time. However, it was broken the day before - the Oilers lost 4:7 to Tampa Bay. Thanks to this game, Edmonton moved up in the Pacific Division standings, as they are now fourth with 27 points.

Florida continues to show good distance hockey and is at the top of the East. They are fourth in the conference standings and third in the Atlantic Division. The Panthers have 36 points, which is a great result. Only the day before, the team did not look like itself because they lost twice after three straight wins. First, Florida lost with a score of 0:4 to Seattle, and then just as well to Vancouver.

Analysts of betting companies believe that Edmonton will be closer to victory in this meeting. In general, we agree with them, as the Oilers have been showing great hockey lately - eight wins in nine previous games speak for themselves. Florida did not achieve similar successes, and after two consecutive 0:4 dry defeats, it will be very difficult for them morally. Therefore, we offer a bet on the final victory of the home team (including overtime and shootout).
