Florida Panthers will play one of the most uneven games on next Sunday NHL calendar, as they’ll face Pittsburgh Penguins at 04:00 pm CST in a game that will represent a huge opportunity for them to regain the top spot of the Atlantic Division. Despite having that wonderful objective in mind, the Panthers haven’t won any of their last 4 games in a row in regulation time, a streak that is very concerning for one of the biggest contenders to lift the Stanley Cup by the end of the season.
Despite this, the bookmakers’ odds are considering Florida Panthers as the big favorites to defeat Pittsburgh Penguins, a team that has been struggling with their defensive line throughout the regular season. In this matter, it must be noted that Florida remains as the second-best offensive line in the Atlantic Division, so they’re expected to be as effective as possible to win this game without any surprise.
On Pittsburgh Penguins’ case, this team showed some engagement during their most recent games to increase their defensive efficiency after such a terrible performance that slowly led them to convert into the worst defensive line in the Eastern Conference after conceding 257 goals this season. Despite those numbers in mind, the Penguins were able to win 4 out of their last 5 games, a very positive trend that enabled them to increase the gap against the bottom team in the Eastern Conference.
