Florida Panthers vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/23/25

The Carolina Hurricanes will host the Florida Panthers in their final game before the holiday break. The defending Stanley Cup champions come into this game playing some good hockey of late. In their last 10 games they are 7-2-1. The Hurricanes have also been playing well, scoring 3 or more goals in all of their last 7 games. On the season, the Hurricanes are averaging 3.29 goals per game — which is good for fifth best in the NHL. The Panthers are also stellar offensively; they are averaging 3.14 goals per contet. These teams just met 2 games ago and played to a score of 4-3. Look for some more fireworks on Tuesday.

The ageless wonder, Brad Marchand, is leading the way for the Panthers with 40 points in 34 games. They have a few other dynamic offensive players such as Sam Reinhart and Carter Verhaeghe. This game is loaded with offensive talent. I think we are in for another high-scoring game between these 2 teams. Give me the over in this one.
