The Florida Panthers head to Utah for the first time to take on the Utah Hockey Club. These teams have yet to play each other this season, so it should be an interesting matchup. Florida is a much better team who is battling near the top of the NHL, but Utah is the home team and can surprise any team. What will happen in this game? Our Florida vs. Utah predictions will get into how it could play out.
There is no denying Florida’s power, even though a mediocre stretch of play that has them with a 2-4-0 record in their last 6 games. They are coming off a loss to the powerful Colorado Avalanche, but they now have a great chance at returning to the win column against Utah who is in the bottom six of the Western Conference. Utah’s recent stretch of hockey shows no signs of earning an improbable win, as they are 1-4-2 in their last 7 games. This has included losses to strong and weak teams, and has illustrated the lack of depth and star talent this team has as they continue to rebuild. Florida could use the win as they are in a dogfight for the Atlantic Division lead, so I expect them to show their power and really frustrate this Utah team who is looking to give the home crowd a good game. I think we will unsurprisingly see pure dominance from Florida, and for these Panthers vs. Hockey Club prediction we are riding with them on the puck line.
