RatCap: Florida Panthers Cool Off Red Hot Dallas Stars 6-2

After being outplayed and outmatched their previous game in Chicago, the Florida Panthers seemed to play with a chip on their shoulders. The team would also be without first line center Aleksander Barkov due to a wrist injury suffered Thursday night during the Chicago Blackhawks game. To add some more intrigue to the match, Florida coach Gerard Gallant would tab backup goalie Al Montoya as the Panthers starter in net. After a delay of game penalty drawn by Alex Petrovic, the Stars would capitalize on the ensuing power play and score the first goal of the game. For a brief moment, it seemed as though the Panthers and fans watching at home would be in for a long night. However, the Panthers would step up their intensity and score the next four goals of the game. Newly formed first line of Huberdeau, Bjugstad, and Jagr would connect for 2 goals and a total of 6 points in contest. Overall, a very good game played by the Panthers.

RatCap: Philadelphia Flyers Hang On, Defeat Florida Panthers 1-0 To Split Home And Home Series

On Monday night, the Florida Panthers threw 31 shots towards Michal Neuvirth. At the end of the night, that was not enough.

The Philadelphia Flyers would avenge their 7-1 loss against the Florida Panthers with a 1-0 shutout to open up their barn in Pennsylvania for the season. Brayden Schenn would score the only goal for the Flyers, as the Panthers would continually miss the net and that would cost them when the clock struck zero.

Anthem Of The Year 2015: We Are The Youth

When Dale Tallon was hired in May of 2010, he sat down at his press conference and said that he was committed to building the Florida Panthers the right way: A professional and championship way. He wanted to make the Florida Panthers a first-class organization from top to bottom. Championship aside, I believe he has already turned this franchise around with the help of Doug Cifu and Vincent Viola.

A Healthy Nick Bjugstad Hopes To Lead The Florida Panthers Back Into The Playoffs

Nick Bjugstad is starting his first year under his new contract and he is being paid as a player regarded as a reliable number one or two center. Considering this contract is in effect for six years, the Panthers organization truly believe they found a gem when they drafted him 19th overall in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. As he enters his third full NHL season, Bjugstad will have to prove that he can continue to be the skilled 6’6″ center that other teams have been worried about since his NHL debut.
