The NHL Atlantic Division has Florida Panthers as their undisputed leaders in the standings, and no matter what the result of their away game against Montreal Canadiens from next Saturday, they’ll keep as the divisional leaders. With that in mind, Florida is expected to play relaxed in Canada after demonstrating that they truly are on of the biggest contenders to battle for the Stanley Cup championship for the second season in a row.
Despite that, Montreal Canadiens must be focused on showing their capabilities as they currently are just 1 point behind the Wild Card mark in the Eastern Conference. However, even when that gap appears to be very short, their performance has been very disappointing after only being able to win 1 out of their last 5 games in regulation time, so there aren’t real expectations of having the Canadiens in the playoffs.
Coming back to Florida Panthers, this team is the second-best offensive line in the Atlantic Division with 218 scored goals, being totally worth noting that Sam Bennett is still appearing in the most relevant moments just like it happened during their most recent game against Toronto Maple Leafs, in which he scored twice to allow the Panthers to win, 2-3. In addition, it must be noted that the Panthers still have some hidden arsenal in Brad Marchand, who hasn’t made his debut after being traded with the Bruins.
