Chicago comes to Sunrise with three losses in a row and serious offensive problems. Now the team has also lost Patrick Kane, who was injured in the previous meeting. Florida was also recently left without points, although it had previously achieved victories three times in a row. Interestingly, the rivals had already met at the end of October, and then the Panthers managed to snatch a 3-2 victory thanks to Lars Eller's goal in the end. Now the owners will have the opportunity to repeat the success. In our betting tip, we will analyze the reasons for the recent failures of the teams and determine the bid
Command Analysis
Florida Panthers
Detroit managed to break Florida's winning streak, which took away two points from Sunrise. The hosts twice restored equality thanks to goals from Sam Rinehart and Aaron Ekblad, but the beginning of the third period turned out to be a failure. The Red Wings scored twice in 45 seconds. Sam Bennett closed the gap shortly before the siren, but the opponent hit an empty goal and won 5-3. Despite the defeat, Rinehart scored for the third match in a row.
Before this misfire, Paul Maurice's team had won three meetings in a row. Two matches with Winnipeg were particularly successful (5:1 and 5:2), with Anton Lundell scoring a hat-trick in the second. Seth Jones continues to actively help the offense, and Matthew Tkachuk remains one of the leaders in points scored. However, the absence of injured Alexander Barkov and Brad Marchand still complicates the task. Nevertheless, the panthers gradually find suitable combinations and regularly create dangerous moments.
Chicago Blackhawks
In the last seven matches, Chicago has won only once, beating Los Angeles 2-1. The offense is unstable, and the defense too often allows opponents to freely dispose of the puck. At the same time, Connor Bedard continues to be useful and scored ten points in nine meetings. Among the other strikers, it is worth highlighting Roman Kanzerov, who has already scored six goals. However, now the team will have to do without Patrick Kane, who suffered an upper body injury.
In the previous match with Colorado, Jeff Blashill's team got off to a good start. Wyatt Kaiser and Kanzerov secured a 2-0 lead by the eighth minute, but then the situation completely changed. The visitors scored five goals in a row and won with a score of 5:2. Chicago had particular difficulties in the second period, when the opponent finally seized the initiative. As a result, the Blackhawks suffered their third defeat in a row, and their position in the table became even more unpleasant.
In the previous confrontation, Chicago caused Florida a lot of trouble, but from that moment on, the situation of the guests only got worse. The team continues to lose points, and now they are also without Kane, who helped organize the attacks. The hosts also have enough personnel problems, but even without several leading hockey players, they managed to win three meetings in a row. The offense has been working especially well lately, which regularly creates chances by actively fighting near other people's gates. Against the Blackhawks' current defense, this could prove to be a major advantage.
However, Florida needs to act more carefully in its own zone, as the recent defeat by Detroit showed how expensive short-term failures can be. But Chicago doesn't have enough stability right now to take advantage of such mistakes all the time. We believe that the hosts will be able to take the initiative under their control and achieve victory without extra time.
