Jan 13, 2007 - 4:15 PM Washington (19-18-7) at Florida (16-21-9) 7:30 pm EST

SUNRISE, Florida (Ticker) -- It cannot get more disappointing for the Florida Panthers.

Afer suffering one of their most shocking defeats of the season, the Panthers will try to recover against the Washington Capitals on Saturday.

Going into the third period of Thursday's contest against Carolina, Florida led 3-0 and was seemingly in control of the game. The Panthers then gave up six goals in the final session of a 6-4 loss.

Florida's leading scorer with 21 goals, Olli Jokinen recorded two more goals on Thursday after notching a hat trick in Wednesday's contest against Pittsburgh.

The Capitals opened their four-game road trip with a 5-4 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday. Alexander Semin scored two goals in the loss, which snapped a three-game winning streak.

The Capitals have won three straight games against Florida and have outscored the Panthers, 9-3, in those meetings.
