SUNRISE, Fla. -- Goaltender Al Montoya will get the start Monday as the Florida Panthers look to turn their fortunes back on the right track against the Edmonton Oilers (7:30 p.m. ET; SNW, FS-F).
One week ago Monday, the Panthers were taking a 12-game winning streak into Vancouver.
But after seeing their streak snapped in an overtime loss against the Canucks, they're back home for the first time since Jan. 3 and on a three-game losing skid, including a 3-1 loss Sunday against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
"We played good in the third period last night, so that was a start," Panthers coach Gerard Gallant said. "I thought the game in Tampa was a close game. They had a good second period and got a 2-0 lead on us and the third period we played really well, we just didn't get that tying goal. We had a couple of chances. We worked hard, we played hard. I thought it was one of our better games actually on the trip."
