THN's Kennedy: Panthers only a "Big Dog" away

Ryan Kennedy's blog @ The Hockey News:

The closest Florida has come to a legitimate game-breaker was during the Olli Jokinen era. The big Finn crested at 91 points in 2006-07, but then the Cats were doomed, ironically, by a porous defense.

But hope may be on the horizon, albeit maybe a little late to salvage the season. In March, Florida has averaged better than four goals per game so far, including a seven-goal outburst in a win over Philadelphia.

Who do they need?

Would UFA Tomas Plekanec do the trick?

My guess is it will have to be via trade as opposed to the free agent market unless they grossly overpay.
