Florida Panthers:  7-3-0 last 10

The Jets are entering this game with 24 points, an 11-5-2 record overall, and they are 5-2-1 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a win against the Tampa Bay Lightning in their last game, winning that one on the road 3-2 in OT. Josh Morrissey, Adam Lowry, and Mark Scheifele each scored 1 goal for them in that game. Josh Morrissey, Dylan DeMelo, Nikolaj Ehlers, Vladislav Namestnikov, Cole Perfetti, and Neal Pionk each led the team in assists with 1 while Cole Perfetti and Mark Scheifele each led the team in shots on net in that game with 5. Connor Hellebuyck was the starting goalie in that game and he allowed 2 goals on 33 shots with 31 saves and a .939 save percentage. Their offense has scored 66 goals this season averaging 3.7 goals per game and their defense has allowed their opponents to score 56 goals against them allowing 3.1 goals per game.

The Panthers are entering this game with 25 points, a 12-6-1 record overall, and they are 7-2-0 in their home games this regular season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a loss against the Boston Bruins in their last game, losing that one at home 3-1. Anton Lundell scored the only goal for them in that game. Nick Cousins and Niko Mikkola each led the team in assists with 1 while Matthew Tkachuk led the team in shots on net in that game with 7. Sergei Bobrovsky was the starting goalie in that game and he allowed 3 goals on 25 shots with 22 saves and a .880 sv percentage. Their offense has scored 58 goals this season averaging 3.1 goals per game and their defense has allowed their opponents to score 52 goals against them allowing 2.7 goals per game.

The current betting odds have the Panthers listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Panthers have looked really good in their games this season with their 12-6-1 record overall which has them as one of the best teams in the East to start the season. They have also been really good in their home games with a 7-2-0 home record this season and they have been playing great on home ice going back to last season too. The Jets are also off to a very nice start this season with their 11-5-2 record overall and they have looked good in their road games too with their 5-2-1 road record. They just played a really close game with the Lightning in their last game though, beating the Lightning in Tampa 3-2 in OT when the Lightning have already been struggling to start the year. Now the Jets will have a much tougher challenge on their hands with a better Panthers team that is on home ice and the Panthers will be looking to bounce back too after a tough loss to the Bruins the other night. The best way to place a bet here is on the Panthers to win this game.
