The second game in next Saturday’s NHL afternoon schedule corresponds to the clash between the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Florida Panthers, which will take place at 02:30 pm CST in Sunrise, Florida. For this game, it makes sense for the bookies’ odds to expect a victory from the Panthers; however, they are still having deep trouble finding offensive consistency.
Taking that into account, this game is expected to be a wonderful opportunity for the Columbus Blue Jackets to earn their third victory in a row, a result that could take them back to the Eastern Conference’s playoff spots. In this regard, it cannot be ignored that referred victories were secured by the Blue Jackets over very competitive teams like the Detroit Red Wings and the New Jersey Devils.
As for the Florida Panthers, this team currently has a four-game losing streak, during which they have conceded many goals. Furthermore, it was really disappointing for the Panthers not to be able to defeat the Nashville Predators last Tuesday, so this game should be taken as a collective challenge to try to build an advantage over the Buffalo Sabres in the last spot of the Eastern Conference’s standings.

Our Florida Panthers vs Columbus Blue Jackets Prediction
With this data in mind, the Columbus Blue Jackets can turn into one of the outsiders of the weekend, because even though the odds are favoring the Florida Panthers on a redemption victory, the reality is that the Panthers’ campaign has been an abysmal disappointment.
