When asked about what makes the Golden Knights such a tough opponent to play on their home ice, Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice did not go the obvious route. The Golden Knights are good in Vegas - because they are flat out good. And have been, basically, since Day 1. Maurice noted his Winnipeg Jets did not have much success against the Golden…

The Winnipeg Jets stake their five-game win streak as they visit the Detroit Red Wings, losers of three straight. Of course, the NHL odds favor the former though not too significantly. Winnipeg is 10-7-1 on the road, with its last five games all going under. Overall, the Jets' improved defense, combined with elite goaltending, has made them stingy…

New Jersey comes to town…

The Florida Panthers will have their hands full again against the league-leading Boston Bruins tonight at TD Garden. And the injury bug will not do them any favors. Again.

The heavily-injured Florida Panthers find themselves starting a three-game gauntlet against two of the best teams in the league - and they start with the upstart New Jersey Devils.

In an 82-game season, finding different sources of motivation are critical. For the Boston Bruins, it's the desire for an easier first-round playoff opponent.

SUNRISE - The Florida Panthers find themselves in dire straights heading into the 30th game of the season.

SUNRISE - With the Florida Panthers playing host to the St. Louis Blues around lunchtime on Saturday afternoon, Andrew Brunette certainly would like to see his team get off to a good start.

The Florida Panthers did not have a morning skate before Thursday's game against the visiting Red Wings, but they are expected to have a couple of big additions to their lineup.

The Colorado Avalanche were the odds-on favorite to win the Stanley Cup when the NHL season started. The Florida Panthers are considered a real threat to compete for the title. Thursday night, the two teams meet up for the first of two meetings this season. Or, as was the case way back in 1996, could there be more? The Panthers are off to a rousing…

Two of the top teams in the NHL will meet up Sunday night when the Florida Panthers visit the Colorado Avalanche.

While Colorado did not get off to the start it had hoped at…

SUNRISE - Spencer Knight will be back in net for the Florida Panthers when they play host to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. After a 40-save shutout Wednesday against Carolina, of course he is. This will be the third consecutive start for the Panthers but that does not mean the team has a goalie controversy going. Coach Paul Maurice grabbed Sergei…

While some of the forwards for the defending Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche either left in the offseason or are currently sidelined, Nathan MacKinnon certainly looks healthy as he is dishing out assists at a fast and furious pace. With MacKinnon leading the way, the NHL playoff odds have Colorado (+500) as the favorite to win the Stanley…

The Florida Panthers will be making their first appearance on national television this season Wednesday night but Brandon Montour says he did not know anything about it.
