Panthers look to even record against Hurricanes

Nov 3, 2007 - 2:13 PM Florida (6-7-0) at Carolina (7-3-3) 7:00 pm EDT

RALEIGH, North Carolina (Ticker) - The Florida Panthers try to get back to .500 on Saturday when they face the Carolina Hurricanes for the second time in four days.

The Panthers won the previous meeting, 4-2, on Wednesday on the strength of power play goals by Olli Jokinen, Richard Zednik and Nathan Horton. Two of those tallies came in the final eight minutes of the game after the Hurricanes were whistled for diving.

The penalties may stem from Florida's complaints to the media about Carolina taking dives during games last season.

The Hurricanes, who lead the Southeast Division by five points over the Tampa Bay Lightning, have struggled recently. After winning back-to-back games, Carolina finished October with just one win in its final three games.

The slump is not the fault of goalie Cam Ward, who has been solid in net this season. The 23-year-old Canadian has posted a 6-2-2 record with a 2.54 goals against-average and a .912 save percentage.
