Goal Differential: -12
5v5 Corsi For%: 51.1 (7th)
5v5 Team Shooting %: 6.12 (29th)

Powerplay%: 14.4 (29th)

The Panthers are finally healthy, but their record gives them some serious work to do in order to make the playoffs. The team carried both a high save and shooting percentage last season, and a drop off has brought them back to reality.
Nevertheless, Alexander Barkov and Jonathan Huberdeau should drastically help in the scoring department.
Their back-end is incredibly deep, and both Roberto Luongo and James Reimer are more than capable of getting hot down the stretch.
The Panthers managed to remain in the race despite of so many injuries, but the powerplay needs to get going in order to go on a run. If this team can start to capitalize on it’s chances, they will quickly become a real threat to the Maple Leafs.
