*10* TOTAL MASSACRE on OVER Panthers/Ducks.

The Anaheim Ducks are averaging a league-worst 1.27 goals per game but their slumbering offense came to life in a 4-2 win against Nashville two days ago. I think they and the Florida Panthers together will find the net enough times to take this game past the set total as well.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. The Panthers' Special Teams - Florida has one of the most efficient power play units in the NHL this season and it's 4-for-12 over the last three games. The Panthers are also giving up plenty of goals in shorthanded situations though, just barely killing off a quarter of its penalties.

2. Situational - Florida suffered a 2-1 OT home-loss to Washington Saturday, but the over is 6-1-4 in its last 11 after scoring two goals or less in its previous game and 4-0 in its last four playing on three or more days of rest.

3. X-Factor - The Ducks' Corey Perry has just three assists and no goals over his first 11 games of the season, but he's 11 points spread out over five goals and six assists in 10 career meetings with the Panthers.

Selection: This is a play on FLA@ANA to go OVER the total (10*)
