The Leafs have a record of 32-33-14 for a 0.494 Points %.<\/p>\n<p>The Florida Panthers last played away on April 9 against the Ottawa Senators. The Panthers lost by a score of 5-1 in regulation, and their current league record is 37-38-4 for a 0.494 Points %.<\/p>\n<p>So that&#8217;s interesting. These two teams are tied in Points %, which means the Leafs getting to fifth last isn&#8217;t just a matter of out-losing the Seattle Kraken. The Kraken are at 77 points, with four games left, and Toronto is tied with Florida and St. Louis at 78. Way too close to call. Of note, Calgary at third last have 73 points, and unless they go on a very unlikely winning streak, that spot cannot be taken by anyone, likely not even the Rangers at 75 points. <\/p>\n<p>The slugfest to get a playoff spot in the west has LA holding the card with 85 points, and Nashville at 84. LA plays the Oilers today at 4 pm ET and Nashville plays the Wild at 5 pm ET.  <\/p>\n<p>Them<\/p>\n<p>Plagued by injuries, and now with nothing to gain from the season by anyone playing hurt, the Panthers have been calling up some AHLers. Wilmer Skoog has been recalled by Florida today. <\/p>\n<p>Lines<\/p>\n<p>Last Game (2026-04-09) via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailyfaceoff.com\/teams\/florida-panthers\/line-combinations\/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Daily Faceoff<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Carter Verhaeghe &#8211; Sam Bennett &#8211; Mackie Samoskevich<br \/>Jesper Boqvist &#8211; Eetu Luostarinen &#8211; A.J.
