The San Jose Sharks host the Florida Panthers on Monday at 9:00 PM Eastern Time in an interconference NHL clash. San Jose are trying to build momentum after a rocky start, sitting near the bottom of the Pacific Division with a 4–6–3 record. October was a struggle filled with losing streaks and offensive droughts, but the Sharks enter this contest on a high after a stunning 6–1 win over the Seattle Kraken.

That victory ended a three-game skid and showcased their potential when things click. Despite flashes of promise, consistency remains an issue — defensive lapses and a high goals-against total have hurt them all season. At home, they've managed only a couple of wins. Coach David Quinn's focus will be tightening defensive discipline and improving the penalty kill as the Sharks face one of the East's elite teams.

Florida arrive in San Jose with mixed form, holding a 7–6–1 record that places them mid-pack in the Eastern Conference. The 2023 Stanley Cup finalists have alternated strong stretches with frustrating lapses. They've posted quality wins, like a 5–2 triumph over the Rangers, but also suffered tough losses, including a recent 4–3 overtime defeat to Carolina after surrendering a late goal. Florida's goal differential sits just below even, reflecting their inconsistency. This matchup begins the second half of a West Coast back-to-back, which could make fatigue a factor. Still, the Panthers will see this as a chance to collect two points against a rebuilding opponent.

Our Florida Panthers vs San Jose Sharks Prediction

For the Sharks, all eyes are on rookie sensation Macklin Celebrini, the first overall pick who's already making an impact. The 18-year-old scored and added two assists in the Seattle win, leading all San Jose rookies in points and bringing excitement back to the franchise. Veteran center Tomas Hertl remains their most reliable offensive force, contributing goals and assists steadily through a difficult stretch. Solid goaltending from Kaapo Kähkönen or James Reimer will be crucial if San Jose hopes to compete.

Florida's attack is powered by Matthew Tkachuk, who leads the team in points and brings both skill and edge to every shift. Captain Aleksander Barkov anchors the top line, combining defensive awareness with consistent scoring, while Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Reinhart offer secondary firepower. In goal, Sergei Bobrovsky remains capable of brilliance despite an uneven start.

The Sharks will aim to repeat their disciplined effort from Seattle, but Florida's talent and experience give them the advantage. Unless San Jose get another stellar night from their goalie, the Panthers should find enough offense to prevail. Our prediction for San Jose Sharks vs Florida Panthers: Under 5.5 goals.
