OVER the Hot Bet When Flames and Panthers Meet

The Florida Panthers saw their five-game winning streak come to an end thanks to a 4-3 setback to the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday but will be looking to start a new streak on Friday when they welcome the Calgary Flames to town. Sportsbooks opened Florida as -156 home chalk with a total of 5.5.

Shark Bites
  • The Panthers are 3-7 SU in their last 10 games as favorite.
  • The total has gone UNDER in nine of the Panthers' last 12 games with a closing total of 5.5 or more.
  • The Flames are 6-1 SU in their last seven games after winning as an underdog.

Calgary has earned points in four straight (3-0-1) and eight of its past 10 games (7-2-1) in the wake of a 3-2 victory at Tampa Bay on Thursday. The Flames have been getting the job done while star forward Johnny Gaudreau has been snake-bitten, as the American hasn’t found the back of the net in his team’s past nine affairs.

Aleksander Barkov and Jonathan Marchessault have been leading the charge for the Panthers this month, as Barkov scored his sixth goal in eight games on Wednesday while Marchessault pushed his point total to 36 on the year in that same game. Vincent Trocheck has notched eight points in his last seven and tops the team in scoring with 42.

OVER bettors are laughing all the way to the bank when Calgary and Florida face off, as the OVER has paid out in each of the previous five renewals between the clubs.
