Carter Verhaeghe scored for the third straight game, Brandon Montour had a goal and three assists, and Sam Bennett also scored for the Panthers, who finished 2-2 on their four-game trip. Lundell had two assists and Spencer Knight stopped 32 shots to improve to 4-1.

In their last 10 games they are 5-5 and have averaged only 3.2 goals per game, five assists, 4.8 penalties and 10.2 penalty minutes while giving up 3.3 goals per game.
BETTING TRENDS
Columbus are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games.
Columbus are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against Florida.
Columbus are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games on the road.
The total has gone OVER in 6 of Columbus's last 8 games when playing on the road against Florida.
The total has gone OVER in 5 of Florida's last 6 games.
Florida are 15-5 SU in their last 20 games at home.
The total has gone OVER in 6 of Florida's last 8 games when playing at home against Columbus.
Prediction
The Blue Jackets are having a great start of the season and have won 4 of their last 5 games beating some of the best teams in the league. The Panthers have been up and down this season as they haven't won 2 games in a row since the first 2 games and they will be without one of their best players in Matthew Tkachuk due to suspension. The Blue Jackets struggled against the Panthers last season but I think they have been better this season so I'll go with the Canes to win this game.
