The Florida Panthers still have a few more games before the break.
After opening their week with a 6-5 win against the Edmonton Oilers on Monday, they’ll now close out their five-game road trip with a matchup against the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday.
Returning to South Florida, they’ll then host the St. Louis Blues on Friday.
From there, they’ll make a quick trip to Tampa to face the Lightning on Sunday.
Tied for first place in the Atlantic Division at 19-11-2, the Panthers currently boast a 7-2-1 record over their last ten games and are feeling confident after their impressive win in Edmonton.
“I’m really happy with that one,” head coach Paul Maurice said after the back-and-forth road win over the Oilers. “I’m really proud that we were able to stay with it, dig in.”
From some hockey-themed fun to special ticket packages, there’s no shortage of interesting things happening on and off the ice around the Territory the rest of this week.
