Puck Line Pick
FLA Panthers -1.5(+160)

The Toronto Maple Leafs continue their road trip with a stop in Sunrise to face the Florida Panthers. They are playing the second game of a back-to-back and hoping for a better performance this time. The first game after the Olympic break is always challenging, but the Panthers shouldn’t be overly concerned, as they benefit from an extra day of rest.

The Maple Leafs lead the season series 2-0, but that lead may not provide them with a false sense of security. Although the Panthers are still missing defenseman Seth Jones and their captain, Aleksander Barkov, they are as healthy as they have been since the start of the season. Goal scoring has been a concern for the Panthers throughout the season, but their offensive numbers are significantly better at home. The Maple Leafs struggle defensively, allowing many quality scoring chances. Therefore, even if Joseph Woll plays well in goal, it may not be enough to secure a win. Look for the Panthers to come out with speed and aim to secure a victory by multiple goals.

Maple Leafs vs Panthers Prediction: Panthers -1.5 (+160) available at the time of publishing. Playable at that number or better.
