The Colorado Avalanche will look to remain hot on Sunday against the back-to-back Stanley Cup champions, the Florida Panthers, at Amerant Bank Arena.
Colorado came into the weekend with a shot at their second 10-game winning streak this season. In November, Jared Bednar’s team was unstoppable, winning 10 straight and setting a franchise record with a shutout streak of 217 minutes and 42 seconds.
It has been an extraordinary season for the Avalanche, who could be looking to put a marker down against the defending champions on Sunday night. They have already beaten the Panthers once in 2025-26, picking them apart 6-2 on home ice on Dec. 11.
Florida’s best winning streak this season stands at four games, and it was achieved just before the holiday break. The team found a lot of success in December, but the new year began with a big 5-1 loss to the New York Rangers in the 2026 Winter Classic on Friday.
Paul Maurice’s team also lost their last game of 2025, falling 3-2 to the Montreal Canadiens in a shootout. On Sunday, they’ll try to avoid a three-game losing streak for the first time since they lost four straight from late November into early December.

Our Colorado Avalanche vs Florida Panthers Prediction
Colorado has put up impressive numbers all season, making them tough to bet against. Before playing the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday night, the Avalanche had only one loss by more than a single goal this season. Since November, they have lost so few games you could count them on one hand.
Florida had a strong December, but their performance dipped late in the month. Going into Sunday, Maurice’s side is on a 2-3-1 run, and their current form doesn’t appear to be good enough to match the dominant Avalanche.
