A pair of outstanding defensive teams clash tonight in this battle for top spot in the Central. Florida is #11 in the NHL in goals allowed and tied for third in save percentage. In their past nine games, the Panthers have held eight teams to three goals or less. Carolina is fourth in goals surrendered, eighth in shots on goal allowed, and tied for third in save percentage. The Panthers are 35-23 UNDER the total at home against teams that average five or more assists per game, plus 73-43 UNDER at home when playing six or more games over 10 days. With the UNDER at 17-6-4 when these teams meet in Carolina, look for more defense than offense. Play Florida/Carolina UNDER the total.
