This is the second division-by-division file - we began the process yesterday with the Eastern Conference's Metropolitan Division. On Saturday, we'll examine the Central, and after our three stars of the week…

When asked about what makes the Golden Knights such a tough opponent to play on their home ice, Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice did not go the obvious route. The Golden Knights are good in Vegas - because they are flat out good. And have been, basically, since Day 1. Maurice noted his Winnipeg Jets did not have much success against the Golden…

The Florida Panthers and Colorado Avalanche are the last two Presidents' Trophy winners and had the two best records last season. But right now, the two are skidding. We can blame injuries, problematic goaltending, or faltering offenses. Maybe it's all of them. Currently, the NHL odds favor the home team, but given how both teams have looked, are…

The Florida Panthers hit the official halfway mark of their 2022-23 season today when they visit the Dallas Stars at 3:30 p.m. Florida comes into the day six points back of the New York Islanders for the final wild card spot in the Eastern Conference.

And that is just the beginning of a stretch of…

Hurricanes vs Rangers The Hurricanes have won 11 in a row and are 15-1-4 in their last 20. Pretty decent.

Raleigh, N.C. - The 2001-2002 version of the Carolina Hurricanes had no business being three wins from the Stanley Cup. At that point, they were just a few years removed from playing in front of sparse crowds at the Greensboro Coliseum, where a curtain regularly draped off much of the upper level seating. But the spring of 2002 brought the infancy…

Maurice did not say who was coming out,…

SUNRISE - The Florida Panthers got a desperate Devils team last Saturday night in Newark and expect more of the same tonight at FLA Live Arena. The Devils are one of the most surprising stories in the NHL this season, getting off to a 16-3-0 start fueled by a 13-game winning streak. But things have cooled considerably. New Jersey comes to town…

The Florida Panthers are on the outside of a playoff spot looking in with a record of 15-13-4 and 34 points. They trail the New York Islanders and the Washington Capitals for the final wild-card spot by four points and the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Atlantic Division by seven points.

The heavily-injured Florida Panthers find themselves starting a three-game gauntlet against two of the best teams in the league - and they start with the upstart New Jersey Devils. Florida's injury (and illness) woes started when captain Sasha Barkov started to feel sick in the middle of a win over the Washington Capitals on Nov. 15. With the…

In New Jersey tonight, we've got two high-powered offenses and a pair of goalies who don't inspire confidence. So, no surprises in our NHL betting picks as the Panthers head to face the Devils.

SUNRISE - The Florida Panthers find themselves in dire straights heading into the 30th game of the season. Just six months removed from ending what was a historically dominant 2021-22 season, the Panthers are nearing bottom-10 territory. And this is coming after Florida sent its 2023 first-round pick to the Montreal Canadiens to acquire Ben Chiarot…

It's been an exciting offseason for the NHL with blockbuster trades and some of the league's biggest stars signing with new teams. It is a little over three months since the Colorado Avalanche took down the Tampa Lightning to win their third Stanley Cup in franchise history. The first puck drop is nearly upon us, which means it's time to lock in…

WINNIPEG - When Winnipeg was soundly beaten by Columbus, the worst team in the Eastern Conference, on Friday, Rick Bowness assured us things would be different against Anaheim, the worst team in the Western Conference. "We had a bad night," Bowness said. "We'll bounce back." Winnipeg didn't bounce back to start Sunday's game, giving up 15 of the…

The Buffalo Sabres managed an upset win over the Ottawa Senators in their home opener on Thursday night. Now, they face the mighty Florida Panthers. The Buffalo Sabres might not be as much of a new-look team as the Florida Panthers, considering the absence of Johnny Huberdeau, Anthony Duclair, and Mackenzie Weegar. They also have a new coach in…

The Montreal Canadiens trail the Florida Panthers by just one point in the Atlantic standings, but they also have the benefit of having a game in hand, not to mention being amid a rebuild. There is still a lot of hockey left to play in the season, but with over a quarter of the schedule in the books, pressure is mounting quickly. And that should be…

The Edmonton Oilers will try and sweep the season series when they host the Florida Panthers on Monday. They won the first of two matchups 4-2 on November 12. Both teams have been just fair since that matchup, with the Oilers 2-3 since that victory and the Panthers 2-4 over that same span. Will the Panthers get a split in this series or will the…

They won the first of two…

SUNRISE - Spencer Knight will be back in net for the Florida Panthers when they play host to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. After a 40-save shutout Wednesday against Carolina, of course he is. This will be the third consecutive start for the Panthers but that does not mean the team has a goalie controversy going. Coach Paul Maurice grabbed Sergei…

The Vancouver Canucks are one of the biggest dumpster fires across the NHL at this current moment in time. With mass amounts of extraneous pressure mounting from the fans and media on general manager Jim Benning and head coach Travis Green, the Canucks performances on the ice aren't getting any better. After a promising first 41 minutes against the…

The NHL game of the night features the Carolina Hurricanes visiting the Florida Panthers.

The game is a pick'em at Caesars…

Everything that could go wrong did go wrong for the New York Islanders last season. On the other hand, very little went awry for the Florida Panthers, who set a salary-cap era record with 340 goals scored and won the Presidents' Trophy with 122 points, which was 38 more than the Isles accrued. Considering how these teams fared last season, it's not…

On a couple of occasions this week, new Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice has compared the start of his team's season against the Islanders to Christmas morning. Well, it's time to open up some gifts. The Panthers' 2022-23 season is about to commence. Florida will open things up on the road this year, playing the host New York Islanders at UBS…

SUNRISE - The Florida Panthers set their initial roster on Monday evening and will open the season with 20 players none of whom are named Eric Staal. The Panthers liked what the veteran center brought to the team in camp on his PTO but they are so close to the salary cap ceiling they can't afford a nice used car much less another NHL player. So,…

Nathan MacKinnon and the Colorado Avalanche were the hunters. Unable to advance beyond the second round of the playoffs three years running, they finally got over the hump last spring before sweeping Connor McDavid's Edmonton Oilers in the Western Conference final and beating the Tampa Bay Lightning in six games to win the franchise's third Stanley…

I'm picking Edmonton to win the Stanley Cup this year. And I wouldn't be surprised if the Oilers end up beating the Toronto Maple Leafs in the final. That is, if both teams' goaltending holds up. It's just one of the questions heading into the 2022-23 season. From whether the Calgary Flames are better or worse after dismantling their core, to…

BRANDON - They have been dressed and ready to go for three years. Skates sharpened, sticks taped, beards grown. They have sweated in the preseason, bled in the regular season and dreamed of the postseason. And yet, when the lights dimmed, the music swelled and the puck dropped for the Stanley Cup finals, the Maple Leafs may as well have had their…

The NHL might not be wide open this season. But it feels uncertain. The league's flat salary cap the past three years is causing issues for many of the top teams. Out of the five best clubs recordwise last season, three - Colorado, Toronto and Minnesota - will have a new primary goaltender. Another, Pacific Division winner Calgary, lost two-thirds…

Our experts have an NHL season preview with a best bet for 2022/23 AP It's hard to believe it's been just over three months since the Colorado Avalanche won their third Stanley Cup in franchise history.

The Winnipeg Jets look to bounce back this season following a turmoil-filled 2021-22. Last season's mess culminated in Paul Maurice stepping down as coach and Blake Wheeler losing his captaincy. Now, veteran coach Rick Bowness looks to right the ship while most of Winnipeg's core stays intact. The NHL odds are bearish on the Jets as they have them…
