A regular NHL 2023-2024 season matchup between the teams representing the Eastern Conference is set to start. Night hockey lovers are awaiting a clash between "Ottawa" and "Florida".
The Ottawa team has participated in 74 official matches in the regular NHL season 2023-2024. Ottawa account includes 74 matches played and 70 points acquired, which enables the team to secure the 14th place in the Eastern Conference standings. In the course of 2023-2024 season, Ottawa is performing weakly, emerging as one of the weakest teams in the league. At present, Ottawa holds the 14th spot in the Eastern Conference ranking, which can be seen as a clear failure, irreversibly so.
Ottawa is currently among the weakest teams of the Eastern Conference, outpacing only opponents from "Montreal" and "Columbus" in the leaderboard. Ottawa has no significant interest left in the remaining regular championship matches, given the position of the Canadian team in the conference standings. The team still has real chances to elevate its rank, however, the success here will bear only a symbolic significance. It is feasible to reach "New Jersey" and "Buffalo", which are falling behind and, most likely, will miss the playoffs. Looking at the recent matches of the regular championship, Ottawa has been performing splendidly, though it's a bit too late. The team from Canada has achieved 5 consecutive victories, losing only to Minnesota.
Florida players have participated in 76 official regular NHL championship matches of the 2023-2024 season. During these 76 matches, Florida was able to amass 99 points, which allows them to hold the 4th spot in the Eastern Conference standings. The 2023-2024 season is turning out successful for Florida, as discernible from their leaderboard position and play content. At the moment, Florida is holding the 4th position in the Eastern Conference standings, lagging behind only the integral contenders presenting "Carolina", "Boston", and the "Rangers".
Florida still holds a chance to claim the title of the best team of the Eastern Conference, considering the not particularly large lead of the Rangers, who top the Eastern Conference ranking. Florida players need to earn 7 more points to take the first position. Teams from Boston and Carolina have 2 and 4 points more to their credit, respectively. As for performance indicators, Florida is conspicuous for its solid defence. The "panthers" have conceded just 193 goals in the 76 matches, which is less than the rest of the Eastern representatives. In the 5 most recent matches, Florida won only once, outpacing Detroit.
"Ottawa" and "Florida" have met in 58 matches. Florida claims 31 victories while Ottawa prevailed in 27 matches.
Florida's individual total ITO (Individual total over) will be over 2 goals scored.
Florida will win in regular time. Florida players have lost a significant amount of points in the recent matches which could influence the final ranking of teams. They need to beat Ottawa and not let competitors from Boston, Carolina and New York get ahead, especially since the competitor has no motivation left.
