T.M. Selection: Florida Panthers -1.5.

I like the Florida Panthers on the puckline against the Dallas Stars in this game on Friday. The Panthers have been having a great year and they are 1 of the most complete teams in the league this year. They have the 2nd most points in the league and have won 2 games in a row. They only have 1 loss in 7 games and they have been putting a ton of pucks in the net lately. They have scored 4+ goals in 7 games in a row and I think they are going to keep that up in this game. They are even better when they play on home ice though and they have won 4 home games in a row by 3+ goals. They scored 5+ goals in all of those games and didn't give up more than 2 except for 1 game they gave up 3 goals but scored 9. I think they are going to continue to roll over teams at home like they have been doing all year. The Stars looked really good in their most recent game, beating the Kraken 5-2 on their home ice but this team looks completely different on the road and I think they are going to struggle in this road game against a team that is a lot better than they are. As well as the Stars have been playing lately, they have actually lost 5 games in a row on the road. In their 4 most recent road losses, they only scored 1 goal or less in every game. The Panthers are very good on both offense and defense and I don't think the Stars will be able to get by the Panthers defense here. I think their road scoring troubles are going to creep up on them here and the Panthers can score a lot too so I think the Stars are going to have a tough time keeping up with the goals in this game. I like the Panthers to win this game on the puckline.

T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Panthers.
