Team analysis

Florida

Florida has shown inconsistent performance after the break, facing the harsh reality of competition. In their first game after the break, they surprised by losing 2-4 against Tampa Bay. The goalkeeper Bobrovsky had a criticized performance, with 87% stops, which raised concerns. However, in the next match against Washingtonachieved a 5-3 victory, where the first line added an eight-point advantage between goals and assists, showing a renewed attack.

Montreal

On the other hand, Montreal has been dealing with serious performance issues. In their most recent three games, they only managed to get away with a victory against Boston (6-2), thanks to the poor form of his rival. Facing Pittsburghfell in a series of penalties (3-4), and after a match against Tampa Bay where they were relentless in the third period, they finally gave in in the final stretch with a 4-5 on penalties. These ups and downs make their chances in the next matches very difficult.
