Minnesota Wild at Florida Panthers Preview & Picks

Florida are backed to snap their losing sequence tonight.

The Panthers are one of the very best defensive teams in hockey and can put the clamps on Minnesota's offense.

  • Florida Panthers are 9-3 in their last 12 games
  • 19 of Florida's last 20 wins have come in regulation time
  • Minnesota Wild are 2-9 in their last 11 games
  • The Under has cashed in 10 of Florida's last 13 games

Head To Head

  • Minnesota Wild lead the regular season series 1-0
  • Minnesota Wild won 2-0 when the two teams last met on October 12

Minnesota Wild Form

Minnesota come into this matchup on the back of their ninth defeat in their last 11 games.

The Wild went on a four-game win streak in late December, but they ended 2023 with a couple of defeats and have faltered ever since.

They started 2024 with a 3-1 loss to Calgary and 4-1 defeat to Tampa Bay, before notching their first win of the year with a 4-3 overtime win in Columbus.

Minnesota failed to follow that up though, sparking a four-game losing skid with a 4-0 defeat to Dallas that was followed by a 7-2 loss to the Stars, a 4-3 overtime defeat to Philadelphia, and a 6-0 shutout loss to Arizona.

The Wild brought an end to that losing run on Monday night as they beat the New York Islanders 5-0, but they immediately returned to losing ways with a 7-3 defeat in Tampa last night.

Florida Panthers Form

Florida enter this matchup looking to snap a three-game losing run and get their playoff push back on track.

The Panthers ended 2023 and began 2024 on a red-hot run of form that saw them win nine consecutive games.

That streak started with a 4-3 win over Vegas just before Christmas, and that proved to be no fluke as they went to ‘Sin City’ and knocked off the Golden Knights, 4-1, on January 4.

Florida’s run reached nine games with a 3-2 overtime victory over Los Angeles on January 11, but they lost their next game and have been unable to bounce back.

The Panthers’ streak was halted by a 4-1 loss to New Jersey, which was followed by overtime defeats to Anaheim, 5-4, and Detroit, 3-2.

Verdict

Florida's form has cooled off in recent days, so a meeting with out-of-form Minnesota could prove to be great timing for the Panthers.
