Florida vs Vancouver Prediction: the Panthers Improved After the Season's Start

Prediction for the NHL match, which will take place on October 22nd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Panthers are the reigning champions of the Eastern Conference. Because of this status, Paul Maurice's team had a short offseason, resulting in a bad first game. First, Florida lost to Minnesota 2-0 and Winnipeg 6-4. But then the Panthers, adapting to the new season, won twice in a row. Florida defeated such strong opponents as New Jersey (4-3) away and Toronto (3-1) at home.

The Canucks, on the other hand, started the season with two victories. Rick Tocchet's team beat Edmonton twice, 8-1 at home and 4-3 on the road. However, Vancouver seemed to celebrate these successes in the next two games, losing to Philadelphia (2-0) and Tampa Bay (4-3).

Overall, Vancouver is a team that's ready for the playoffs. Bruce Boudreau failed to lead the Canucks to the postseason, but Rick Tocchet went to the Stanley Cup with Arizona. So there's a chance the Canucks' have a shot.

• Florida has won seven of the last ten games against Vancouver.
• 7 out of 9 previous H2H meetings ended with the TO.

Vancouver started a road trip after two wins over Edmonton, losing twice. Against Florida, the Canucks may also struggle. From the third period of the match with Winnipeg, the Panthers suddenly found their style, almost escaped defeat and achieved two victories. A good emotional backdrop will likely help Florida in the upcoming game.
