Florida Panthers won
Our pick, Florida Panthers to win at locked odds 1.816, won. It was published with 52% confidence.
Before the start the best price on Florida Panthers to win had drifted from 1.816 to 1.87, so the market moved away from this pick after it was published.
This NHL fixture on 7 October 2026 pairs Florida Panthers with Los Angeles Kings and is listed for Crypto.com Arena (Los Angeles). The market leans to Florida Panthers at 1.816, with Los Angeles Kings at 1.992, which converts to an implied chance of 52.3% against 47.7% once the margin is stripped out.
Across all competitions combined, the sides have met 15 times since 2019, with Florida Panthers winning 8 and Los Angeles Kings 7, and every meeting produced a winner. The latest was an NHL game on 18 December 2025. Recent results for either team are not available to us.
We pick Florida Panthers to win at 52% confidence. That figure reflects their market chance as favourite once the bookmaker margin is removed, and the edge is narrow because the prices sit so close together. With team news unseen and the head-to-head count so close, the view is best held loosely.
