GameDay Caterwaul: Florida Panthers at Winnipeg Jets
Dec 6, 2022 - 12:14 PMAfter turning around their five-game road trip with back-to-back 5-1 wins over Vancouver and Seattle, the Florida Panthers (12-9-4) will face the Winnipeg Jets (15-7-1) tonight at Canada Life Centre before they head back to Sunrise. The undermanned Panthers scored thrice on the power play and got 35 saves from Spencer Knight to end the Kraken’s franchise record seven-game winning streak Saturday night at Climate Pledge Arena. Winnipeg will be closing out a four-game homestand that has seen victories over Colorado and Anaheim bookend a loss to Columbus. With Patric Hornqvist going on LTIR, the Cats, who swept Jets 2.0 last season, were able to restock their roster, adding veteran forwards Chris Tierney and Zac Dalpe and prospect defenseman Matt Kiersted from the Charlotte Checkers.
