As they go home for Game 5, they are the favourites to win their first Stanley Cup. Panthers top players – Aleksander Barkov, Matthew Tkachuk, Carter Verhaeghe, and Sam Reinhart, have not scored any points. Florida’s power play was useless, going 0 for 4 and giving up a shorthanded goal. The defence faltered and Bobrovsku struggled. Betting On The Edmonton Oilers 1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Total: Under 5.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.943 The Edmonton Oilers proved they are not content, as seen in their dominant 8-1 victory over the Florida Panthers in Game 4 on Saturday. This emphatic victory watched the Oilers turn their frustration into a goal-scoring spree, giving them a historic comeback in the series. Edmonton’s success was backed by them winning 53% of faceoffs with the Panthers and delivering 35 shots. They capitalised on six power-play chances, scoring once with the extra man. Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl found their rhythm, supported by key contributions from the bottom two lines, reducing the load on their top scorers and generating momentum.  MatchPlug Prediction For Florida Panthers VS Edmonton Oilers  For Game 5, the Edmonton Oilers must remain dominant, shoot aggressively and keep their defence solid. The Florida Panthers on the other hand, need to step up, improve their power play and strengthen their defence to bounce back and win the Stanley Cup. Final Prediction: Edmonton Oilers Moneyline.

biden hosts chiefs after super bowl win

President Joe Biden hosts Chiefs after Super Bowl win: ‘Welcome back to the White House!’

It took a long time for President Joe Biden to honour the Kansas City Chiefs for the first time at White House. Now it has become tradition. President Biden for the second time in many years, welcomed and celebrated the Super Bowl-champion Chiefs, on Friday. This visit is after their Super Bowl LVIII overtime victory over the San Francisco 49ers. “Welcome back,” Biden began. “Welcome back to the White House!” Last year’s tournament was remarkable for the Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who made an impromptu trip to the podium, before quarterback Patrick Mahomes did a spot-on secret service impression by calmly and cooly whisking away his top receiver.  This time, Biden spoke, along with Chiefs owner and CEO Clark Hunt before he called up Kelce. “I’d have Travis come up here, but God only knows what he’d say,” Biden jokes. “Travis come here. It’s all yours pal.” Kelce did not miss a beat, delivering a succinct speech amid laughter from teammates and the president. “My fellow Americans, it’s nice to see you all yet again,” Kelce said. “I’m not gonna lie, President Biden, they told me if I came up here I’d get tased, so I’m going to go back to my spot.” Biden later handed over the stage to Hunt. “I’m incredibly proud of our players and coaches,” Hunt said. “This season, with a target on their backs, they overcame adversity and got through perhaps the toughest group of playoff opponents in league history. They have etched their names in the NFL history books as just the second back-to-back Super Bowl championship team this century.” By winning the Super Bowls again and their third in five seasons, the Kansas City Chiefs are a dynasty and as mentioned by Hunt, their latest title contest might have been their most daunting. Before this past season, the Chiefs had nothing but home matches. But by securing their fourth Super Bowl title in five seasons, they went on the road for the first time in that duration. During the aforementioned 2023 playoff run, Kansas City, started by beating the Miami Dolphins in frigid weather at Arrowhead Stadium. Next they travelled to defeat the second-seeded Buffalo Bills and then the top-seeded Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game. After Hunt’s speech, he invited head coach Andy Reid, who gave Biden a Chiefs helmet. The president wore the helmet to a round of applause. “Winning back to back, I kinda like that,” quipped Biden, who’s running for reelection this fall. With the 2024 NFL season starting in September, Kansas City will strive to become the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowls. As such, Hunt is hoping to keep the burgeoning Kansas tradition of spring trips to the White House. Hunt Said: “We have greatly enjoyed our time here today and we look forward to the challenge of making this an annual trip.”

Betting On The Edmonton Oilers 1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Total: Over 5.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.769 The Edmonton Oilers (59-32-7 SU, 43-55 ATS) will want to maintain control of their series with the Dallas Stars (62-26-11 SU, 44-55 ATS) after defeating them in Game 5. In Game 4, Edmonton also gave an excellent performance, almost folding down 2-0 in the first period, but responded with five straight goals. The Oilers can now take the lead in the series. Betting On The Dallas Stars 1XBet Spread: 0 1XBet Total: Under 5.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.222 The Oilers will be desperate entering this match with the Dallas Stars, because they do not want a Game 7 against Dallas. The Stars have been the more rounded squad top to bottom, but Edmonton won game 4 and game 5, because their best players dominated the game. With Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl play, it’s hard for Dallas to stop the Oilers from finding the net. MatchPlug Prediction For Edmonton Oilers VS Dallas Stars If Tanev blocks pucks from entering the Stars’ net, it will defend Dallas for Jake Oettinger and let them decide the flow of the match. But if Edmonton has a clearer path to the goal, it is hard to picture the Stars overpowering the Oilers. Experts predict the Oilers will win. Final Prediction: Edmonton Oilers Moneyline.
