Panthers vs Blues Prediction 11/14/2026 Today’s NHL Picks

Panthers vs Blues Prediction

The Blues have won 6 of the last 9 games against the Panthers, and Florida is still down key players. However, the Blues just aren’t consistent enough to trust against good teams, and the offense remains stuck in the mud. The Blues are 25th in goals per game and 20th in offensive power play percentage.

The Panthers have put together a nice week, and there are reports out there that Marchand and Barkov are returning soon. The spirits of these Panthers have to be quite high given their current form and the fact they’re getting back two of their best players. I’d need real plus money to consider the Blues in this spot. I have to side with the Panthers and the low price given the way they’re playing right now and the better offense.
