Command Analysis

Florida Panthers

The Florida Panthers are so far the most successful team in the preseason. They won three games in a row and scored 12 goals. First, the Panthers beat Nashville twice (5:4 OT and 3:1), and then they defeated Dallas (4:3).
Joel Quenneville hasn't even used his main lineup yet, but his charges look great, especially in attack. The goaltender Christopher Gibson played a full game for the first time against Dallas and stopped 35 shots.

Dallas Stars

The Dallas Stars still have all their key players on the roster, plus they signed defenceman Ryan Suter. However, the team is yet to win in the preseason. Before going against Florida, the Stars lost to St. Louis (1:2 OT).
The Stars' biggest problem is their inability to create enough scoring chances. However, Rick Bowness's squad looked more interesting with Guryanov and Radulov in the attack.

Tip and bets
Florida look really good and haven't lost a single game in the preseason yet. The Panthers are very active in an opponent's zone and constantly take shots at the goal. Dallas played only one game with an optimal lineup; they are unlikely to win in the upcoming match.
Our prediction - Florida to win
The Panthers are known for their high performance in attack; last season, they rarely left the court without scoring at least three goals. Dallas are usually doing well in attack against Florida, too. We suggest playing the total over.
Second wager - total over 5.5 goals
