Florida Panthers

Players to target: Aleksander Barkov, Nick Bjugstad, and Evgeni Dadonov

The Florida Panthers' first line will get a great matchup against the Ottawa Senators, who have been burned in their last several meetings against the Panthers. Overall, Ottawa has allowed 3.62 goals per night at home and has just a 75.5% penalty kill at home. It's safe to say the Barkov line is rolling as they have combined for 13 real-world points in the last week.

The Panthers are one of the hottest teams (11-3-1 in their last 15), averaging 3.55 goals per game over their past 15 outings, a span which includes Barkov's 1.15 points per contest since February 1st. The Jean-Gabriel Pageau line does yield 36.5 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and roughly 16 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes at home. Florida did lose last night, and there are two schools of thought -- either this is a get-well game or this could be a dicey contest versus an opponent with nothing to lose. Also, the last two meetings between these two produced 17 combined goals and an average of nearly 70 shots.

Lastly, does the pressure get to Florida? That is the only other concern. It did not last week in a 7-2 win in Ottawa as the Florida top line tallied six real-world points together.
