The Panthers (12–12–1) arrive having dropped three straight games at home, putting pressure on them to right the ship quickly. Meanwhile, the Predators (9–13–4) have won three of their last four games despite being among the lowest-scoring teams in the league, with a –24 goal differential (69 scored, 93 allowed) and a 3–5–2 road record this season. Nashville enters this game on a high note after a convincing 5–1 home win over the Calgary Flames on December 2.
On the Nashville side, goaltending has been shaky this season. Starter Juuse Saros' save percentage and goals-against average are well below league average. Defensively, they’ve allowed a ton of dangerous chances. That raises some concerns given Florida’s offensive capabilities. For Florida, their veteran netminder has had a rough start too. Sergei Bobrovsky has a save percentage of .883 and needs to be better for his team to be competitive in the future.
Florida’s offense still leans heavily on Brad Marchand, who leads the team with 15 goals and 27 points. Other scoring options like Sam Reinhart and Carter Verhaeghe will need to bounce back to avoid letting the Predators hang around. On the Nashville side, Steven Stamkos continues to lead by example; he recently became just the sixth active player to reach 1,200 career NHL points. He has three goals and five points over his last four outings. Also keep an eye on Jonathan Marchessault, who is riding a two-game point streak after ending a long drought.
Player | Stat Prop to Watch |
|---|---|
Brad Marchand (FLA) | Over 0.5 points |
Steven Stamkos (NSH) | Anytime goal scorer |
Sam Reinhart (FLA) | Over 0.5 points |
Carter Verhaeghe (FLA) | Over 0.5 points |
Projected Final Score: Florida Panthers 4 – Nashville Predators 2
Win Probability: Panthers 65%, Predators 35%
I'm taking the Panthers to win and cover the puckline at home in this game. Nashville has won three of its last four, but those have come largely against weaker competition. Nashville should struggle on the road against the defending champs.
