Florida at Ottawa

The Florida Panthers are 3-2 and have matched the home mark of the Ottawa Senators who are 3-2 here to open the season, setting the stage for a highly-competitive contest. The line here indicates just that. The Panthers have allowed just 19 goals in eight games or 2.4 per contest, and have had their own problems scoring and have been shut-out twice already on the young season. The Senators had to patch-up some holes in the early going on the back side of the ice after allowing 30 goals in their first six games. The have since tightened things up considerably, allowing just 6 over their last three. The Panthers have now gone 20-7-2 to the UNDER when facing a team with a winning home record on the season, while Ottawa weighs-in having failed to go OVER in their last four vs. the Southeast. This one sets up tight and low, so I'll back the UNDER.
