The Florida Panthers (27-17-3) look to complete a season sweep against the Anaheim Ducks (18-22-6) at Honda Center on Tuesday night, following their commanding 3-0 victory in their previous matchup just three days ago.
The Panthers have dominated the recent series with an impressive 8-2 record in their last 10 meetings, while currently sitting second in the Atlantic Division and showcasing a potent offense that averages 3.17 goals per game.
The Ducks, meanwhile, find themselves in a challenging stretch, having lost six of their last seven games and struggling to generate offense with just 2.37 goals per game, ranking last in the NHL.
Florida's strong special teams play, converting 24.5% of their power play opportunities, could prove decisive against Anaheim's 28th-ranked penalty kill unit.
While the Panthers appear to have the upper hand, the Ducks' home-ice advantage and desperate need for points could spark an inspired performance from the hosts.
