Final
Surging Panthers host Stars
Jan 21, 2009 - 11:29 AM Dallas (19-18-7) at Florida (21-16-8), 7:30 p.m. ESTSUNRISE, Florida (Ticker) -- The Florida Panthers look to keep rolling on Wednesday when they host the Dallas Stars in the final game for each club before the All-Star break.
The Panthers have earned a point in every game since the start of the new year, going 5-0-3 in the month of January.
While Florida goaltender Tomas Vokoun is 4-0-2 this month, its the suddenly active Panthers' offense that has been key of late.
The club has scored 35 goals during its impressive eight-game run, with the line of David Booth, Richard Zednik and Nathan Horton providing the biggest spark.
Booth scored his 19th goal of the season in Monday's 3-2 shootout loss to Buffalo and has 17 points over his last 14 games.
Dallas comes in off a frustrating 4-2 loss at Tampa Bay on Monday. The Stars entered the third period with a 2-1 lead, but let the game slip away during the final 20 minutes.
Left wing Loui Eriksson scored his team-leading 22nd goal in the defeat and is third on the team in scoring with 32 points - trailing only Brad Richards (38) and Mike Ribeiro (36).
