Last night, the Carolina Hurricanes defeated the Florida Panthers in overtime, giving the 1st place team in the Discover Central Division their first consecutive losses of the season. The Florida Panthers still remain in 1st place, though, as they received a consolation point for pushing the game past regulation time. The Canes are tied for 2nd place with the Tampa Bay Lightning.
I’ve been saying this for awhile now: the Florida Panthers are a good hockey team.
