The Florida Panthers started their six-game homestand before Thanksgiving with four straight losses, but ended up finding momentum at the end over the weekend with the back-to-back games played against the Blue Jackets, winning in a thrilling OT game and destroying the Islanders the next day 4-1.
Florida Panthers Hoping to Keep Momentum
The Panthers will begin a tough four-game road trip against the Utah Mammoth on Wednesday night. The Panthers will hope to bring this two-game winning streak on the road to Utah and get a string of wins to climb back into the standings.
Florida Panthers Forward Carter Verhaeghe has found some new father/dad magic since he became a new dad. He has scored in all six games and has been practically unstoppable. He was also named the third star of the week in the NHL with 5 points in three games.
All around the Panthers’ lineup, players have stepped up. A.J. Greer, Seth Jones, and Sam Bennett have all been scoring as of late
Western Road Trip Ahead
Head Coach Paul Maurice noted the Panthers have been playing well for quite a while. The Florida Panthers head on a road trip, looking to rack up points. They will hope to carry this momentum from winning back-to-back games.
Star Forward Matthew Tkachuk should also be making his season debut soon. The Panthers finally got back Eetu Luostarinen after his BBQ accident, and it has sure made a difference.
