Florida is having a great regular season. If the Panthers jumped into the playoffs only after the final day of play a year ago, they have officially got a ticket to the cup battles, although they still have nine games left before the end of the first part of the season. They are not in the best shape at the moment. In the last seven meetings, they have only one win, beating Philadelphia 4:1; once again, they lost to the Rangers in a shootout - 3:4, and in the remaining five battles, they were left without any points. Now, the Southerners are only in fourth place in the Eastern Conference standings, five points behind the leader.

In recent years, the Wings have been in a rebuilding phase, but now this process is complete; quality hockey players have been signed, capable of solving big problems here and now, which is what they have been doing for a long time. They had a five-game winning streak at the end of February, almost securing a spot in the Cup Final Eight, but then they failed in March. The Red and White had suffered 11 losses in 14 previous meetings, beating only Buffalo 4:1, Columbus 4:3, and the Islanders 6:3. That's only good enough for ninth place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Florida and Detroit approach the head-to-head confrontation, being in bad shape. The Panthers have only one win in their last seven games, while the Wings have lost 11 of their previous 14 battles, and they have failed to win eight games in a row on the road. In addition, the head-to-head statistics scream in favor of the South, according to which they have won 11 of the last 12 friendlies. They are unqualified favorites in the upcoming battle, while the Red and White are in vital need of points, but their current form does not allow them to expect success.

Detroit recently not only almost stopped beating Florida but also played extremely weak offensively. In the previous 15 head-to-head meetings, the Wings have scored a total of only 22 goals (1.47 per game on average). In addition, in the last six head-to-head meetings, the Red-Whites and Panthers have scored 28 pucks (4.67 average per game), so we shouldn't expect a scoring extravaganza now, either.
