SUNRISE (CBSMiami) – A little home cooking could be just what the Florida Panthers need.
Fresh off Tuesday’s embarrassing 5-1 loss in Montreal, the Panthers will kick off a five-game homestand Thursday night against the Anaheim Ducks at the BB&T Center.
Florida has played well at home so far this season and will need that to continue over the next two weeks.
A win over the Ducks would go a long way towards getting things back on track for a team that has struggled with consistency while learning a new system.
“If you get off on the right foot on a homestand, it can carry some momentum in these next games and we wanna get that mojo back,” said Panthers forward Nick Bjugstad.
