Florida Panthers vs Carolina Hurricanes Prediction: Who will be stronger?

Prediction for the NHL Florida Panthers vs Carolina Hurricanes match, which will take place on April 14. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Florida picked up the pace at the end of the regular season, earning a playoff spot. The battle with Pittsburgh for eighth place in the East table lasted a long time, but the Panthers showed they were worthy of fighting for the Stanley Cup. So, ahead of 82 regular season games, the Panthers settle for eighth place in the vacant table with 92 points. In their last five games, Florida has four wins and suffered a loss outside of regulation time, 21:7 overall, the second-highest total in the conference.

Carolina still has tournament motivation. If they lose this upcoming game, the Hurricanes risk losing first place in the Metropolitan Division standings. New Jersey is breathing down their neck, trailing by just one point. So, the Hurricanes should show their best hockey in the match with Florida. It should be noted that Carolina's conditioning is not all right. They scored only four points in the last five games, beating Ottawa in overtime and Detroit.

Florida has already clinched a playoff spot, so the Panthers will play for time in the NHL's regular-season finale. Carolina has a different story. They are fighting for the top place in the league standings, so they have no margin for error, especially since New Jersey will face Washington, who aren't exactly shining. With this in mind, we believe that the best option for the bet is the final victory of the guests.
