Panthers vs. Flyers Pick
Panthers vs. Flyers Moneyline Pick
- Panthers -140
Florida rolled to three straight wins at home and now go on the road for the first time this season. The Panthers have been stingy in their own end of the ice, and their offense broke out with a half dozen goals against Ottawa Saturday night, even without Tkachuk and Barkov. Philadelphia earned a point Saturday against Carolina on the road and tries to avenge their loss in Sunrise last week. The problem for the Flyers is that they have been mediocre on both ends of the ic,e and they don’t have a great goaltending situation to work with either. Facing a Panthers’ squad that seemingly got untracked offensively is a bad mix for the Flyers. Look for Philadelphia to remain unbeaten by prevailing here.
Panthers vs. Flyers Over/Under Pick
- Over 5.5 (-130)
Florida has seen the under hit in two of their three games this season. The Panthers have an average total of 5.33 goals per game on the year. Last season, the Panthers had an average total of 5.72 goals per game and that number climbs to 5.95 goals per game as the visiting team. Philadelphia has split their two games in relation to the total with an average of five goals per game. In 2024-25, the Flyers had an average total of 6.28 goals per game and that number slipped to 6.15 goals per game on home ice. We saw only three goals in the first meeting last week, snapping a string of three straight overs in the series. With Florida seemingly on track, this game winds up over the number.
