Florida Panthers (7-4-2) will look to do a quick double over Winnipeg Jets (4-6-3) when they meet on Friday night at Amerant Bank Arena. The Panthers mauled the Jets 5-1 on the road on Tuesday night, with Carter Verhaeghe scoring twice. Matthew Tkachuk was also unplayable during the night, bagging four assists at the Canada Life Centre. Following this victory, the Panthers are the warm -260 betting favorites tonight.
Winnipeg Jets, meanwhile, are the +195 betting underdogs in this contest. Their defeat against the Panthers extended their slide to six games, leaving them second last in the Central Division with 11 points. The Jets failed to end the slide on Thursday night after losing 6-4 to the Lightning on the road. Their third-period push was not enough to stop their losing run from extending to seven games. The message is simple: they must find a way to end the slide.
