- Detroit Red Wings Form
The Red Wings head to Florida having won three of their last five games, while the Panthers remain without Aleksander Barkov and Brad Marchand. Detroit's recent form makes them an appealing underdog against the defending Stanley Cup champions.
Detroit are allowing opponents just 24.4 shots per game, although their 68.9% penalty kill is a concern against Florida's power play, which is converting at 24.2%.
DeBrincat has recorded at least three shots in 11 of his 14 games this season, including four of his last five. Jones has also been remarkably consistent for Florida, collecting points in eight of his last ten appearances.
Key Stats and Betting Trends
- Detroit have won three of their last five games, scoring 18 goals.
- Florida have conceded the opening goal in nine of their 14 matches.
- DeBrincat has 51 shots in 14 games, averaging 3.64 per appearance.
- Jones has 16 assists this season and is averaging almost 25 minutes of ice time.
Head to Head
Florida won three of the four meetings last season, including an 8-1 victory in their most recent encounter.
Florida Panthers Form
Florida have won three consecutive games, including back-to-back victories over Winnipeg, despite continuing to deal with significant injuries.
Friday's 5-2 win against the Jets featured an Anton Lundell hat trick, while Sam Reinhart opened the scoring on the power play. Akira Schmid also impressed with 22 saves.
Barkov and Marchand remain unavailable, limiting Florida's attacking depth. Jones has helped compensate with points in eight of his last ten games, including three against Winnipeg, and remains a strong option to contribute offensively.
Detroit Red Wings Form
Detroit are 6-5-3 and have scored 18 goals across their last five games, although defensive lapses continue to cost them.
Saturday's 5-4 defeat to St. Louis was particularly frustrating. The Red Wings led 4-2 in the third period before conceding three goals in under five minutes. That followed a 4-1 victory over Chicago, where Viktor Arvidsson scored a hat trick.
DeBrincat has been one of Detroit's most consistent attacking threats, recording 51 shots through 14 appearances. Injuries to Marco Kasper, Mason Appleton and Albert Johansson have reduced their depth, but the Red Wings are still creating enough opportunities to threaten Florida.
Verdict
Detroit Red Wings to win, including overtime and shootouts, is the value selection against a depleted Florida lineup. Alex DeBrincat 3+ shots on goal and Seth Jones 1+ point complete the card.
