Florida has turned into a very consistent team and, while they still have had much room to grow, they’re definitely worth the price of admission. It was uncomfortable to bet on a team that didn’t have much time in the spotlight but the Sunshine State has been good to the Panthers.
After clawing their way to respectability thanks to legends like Roberto Luongo and building block defenseman Aaron Ekblad, the Panthers took a big step in 2023 by reaching the Stanley Cup Finals before ultimately losing in five games against the Vegas Golden Knights. Even with the Finals loss, Florida’s consistency and young talent make them an intriguing team to keep an eye on for bettors!

Florida Panthers Betting Tips
The Panthers have developed into a consistent playoff contender in recent years behind their young core led by Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk. Goaltending remains a bit of a question mark, though Sergei Bobrovsky has shown flashes of his Vezina Trophy form at times.
Florida's high-flying offense makes them a threat to keep up with any team on a given night. However, their defense and goaltending mean they can also be prone to allowing a lot of goals as well. This leads to a lot of high-scoring, back-and-forth games when betting on the Panthers.
When wagering on Panthers games, be sure to monitor the over/under total. Their games frequently end up in the 6-7 goal range. Florida also plays quite well as an underdog, thanks to their offensive firepower allowing them to hang around and steal games even against elite opponents in the Eastern Conference.
Pay close attention to injuries, as Florida relies heavily on Barkov, Tkachuk and Jonathan Huberdeau to carry the offensive load. If one of them is out, it significantly impacts their ability to score goals. Advanced metrics like Corsi and expected goals can be useful tools to evaluate if the Panthers are moving the needle possession-wise on a game-to-game basis as well.
