SUNRISE (CBSMiami/SportsDirect) – The Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning are both trying to get their respective seasons back on track.
The Panthers will look to sweep a home-and-home series with their Sunshine State rivals when they host the Lightning on Monday.
The Panthers begin a five-game homestand after defenseman Aaron Ekblad’s power-play goal in the final minute of regulation tied Saturday’s contest before they won in a shootout at Tampa Bay.
Florida likely will be without defenseman Dmitry Kulikov (lower body), but center Aleksander Barkov (hand) could return after a 10-game absence.
