Ottawa Senators vs Florida Panthers: Panthers break senators' four-match winning streak

Prediction for the NHL Ottawa Senators vs Florida Panthers match, which will take place on April 29. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Ottawa Senators

Ottawa has once again slipped past the playoffs. There are too many young and promising players on the roster, who will be ready to fight for high places in the future, but it's too early for the Red and Black to claim anything more. They finished the regular season on a four-game winning streak, but their opponents were not nearly as strong on that stretch either. Ottawa currently sits in 13th place in the Eastern Conference standings.

Florida Panthers

Florida had the best regular season in club history. The Panthers have a cup game ahead of them, where they will finally try to break the first-round barrier. They put together a great run in April, giving them a 13-match winning streak. It seemed that the Southerners would make it to the playoffs, but they lost to Tampa Bay and Boston at 4:8 and 2:4 in their last two games.

Expert Betting Tips

While the Senators have been among the league's outsiders all season, losing any chance of making the playoffs, the Panthers had a decent regular season and deservedly won the Eastern Conference. The Canadians approach the meeting with a 4-match winning streak. As a result, we suggest betting on a win for Florida with a handicap (-1.5) for 1.93.

The Panthers have already scored 334 goals in 80 games (4.18 average per game). Ottawa has conceded 260 pucks in 80 games (3.25 average per game). Moreover, in their last six games, the Panthers scored 26 goals (4.33 goals per game average), so we suggest betting on an individual total over 4.5 for 2.3.

Carter Verhaeghe did not play a single game in the NHL until he was 23. In the 2019/20 season, he joined Tampa Bay's roster, where he played as a containment forward and won a Stanley Cup, then moved to Florida and became a first-team player with Alexander Barkov and Claude Giroux. Unsurprisingly, the Canadian has already scored 53 points (22 goals + 31 assists) in 76 games, so it is worth looking at the bet on the Carter Verhaeghe total over 0.5 for 1.76.
