Panthers vs Red Wings prediction

Panthers vs Red Wings Best bet: Sam Reinhart 3+ shots on goal (-140)

The Florida Panthers are without Matthew Tkachuk and Aleksander Barkov, but they still have plenty of firepower up front — including Sam Reinhart.

Reinhart has 13 shots on goal through four games this season, going Over 2.5 SOG in each of those four contests. He hasn’t been taking a ton of shot attempts, with a total of 24, but he’s hit the net on over half of them.

The Panthers winger registered five shots on nine attempts in the first meeting against the Detroit Red Wings last season before being held to one on four attempts.

The Red Wings are coming off a game in which they allowed 40 shots on goal to the Maple Leafs, and the Panthers have piled up the shots this season, with Reinhart playing a big part in that.

Panthers vs Red Wings same-game parlay

Reinhart had a modest 39 goals last season after putting up 57 in a contract year the season prior. He should be looking to be more aggressive this season with Tkachuk and Barkov out, and he’s done just that so far, scoring in each of the last two contests.

The Red Wings are coming off an emotional two-game sweep of the Maple Leafs, while the Panthers are looking to bounce back after a loss in the Flyers’ home opener. Paul Maurice should have his team ready to take care of business on the road.
