Florida is a disease, both the state and its namesake hockey team

Fourteen shots on goal through 40 minutes. A total of twenty-two shot attempts that missed the net, and another 21 shots blocked in the game.

Tuesday night’s 2-1 loss to the Florida Panthers was not the worst game the Flyers played all year, but they just weren’t able to get enough going offensively, failing to crack the Cats’ neutral zone with any consistency, and the result was a game with far too few dangerous chances against Roberto Luongo, who looked more like the Vezina contender of the previous decade than a 39-year-old collecting a pension check in the Sunshine State.
