Note this a matinee game with a very early start time. So I'm not envisioning a wide open game.

The Panthers scored three goals in their 3-1 opening game win against the Islanders. One of their goals was an empty-netter. Florida averaged just two goals during its last five preseason games.

The Sabres scored just 11 goals during their last five preseason games. Buffalo held Ottawa to one goal in a 4-1 opening game win.

So I see a 7 total this early in the season between these two teams as being too large.
