The high-octane Eastern Conference semifinal clash between the Florida Panthers and the Toronto Maple Leafs is living up to the billing, especially for the neutral. With both games in Canada going the hosts’ way (5:4, 4:3), the series shifts to Sunrise, where an equally explosive encounter is expected.
Florida Panthers
As seen during last year’s title-winning run, the Panthers have no intention of tightening up — they embrace an open, high-tempo style on both ends of the ice. Game 2 marked the sixth time in seven playoff outings the Panthers sailed over the 5.5 total. Their intensity showed in every department: 28 shots, five penalties and a staggering 39 hits. Back on home ice, the Panthers are unlikely to dial it down.
Toronto Maple Leafs
The Maple Leafs, meanwhile, showed composure amidst the chaos. The coaching staff kept their cool under the Florida Panthers’ pressure in Game 2. The Leafs boast two top-10 scorers in the current postseason — Mitch Marner (2+8) and William Nylander (6+7) — and found the net 10 times in three road games against the Ottawa Senators in the previous round.
Florida Panthers vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction
The Florida Panthers swept all four home meetings with the Toronto Maple Leafs in the regular season. A loss here would push the Panthers to the brink of elimination, but the Maple Leafs’ firepower is likely to keep things wide open. All signs point to another goal-heavy contest.
