“It’s changing, slowly but surely, I think we are getting into a good place. We’re starting to feel the energy. It’s a good positive upbeat feel right now. A lot more buzz. More media coverage, more walk-up ... All those things are starting to come. It just takes time.”
- Florida GM Dale Tallon via Mike Zeisberger/Slam! Sports. More from a refreshingly positive spin here.

Why last night rocked:
- BUF over WSH, 4-2; Sabres scored four in the first
- CAR over NJ, 4-2; one case where cheering on the SE club was imperative
Why last night jonesed:
- NYR over NYI, 3-0; whatever
Why tonight is a Big Deal:
- CAR at PIT, 7 p.m.
- PHI at TB, 7:30
- MTL at OTW, 7:30
- WPG at COL, 9
Next up for the Cats:
Kicking off a three-game homestand this evening vs Toronto. The LBC Game Thread's got a two day head start on you, which is more than it needs. It's got friends in every town and village from here to the Sudan, speaks a dozen languages, knows every local custom; it'll blend in, disappear, you'll never see it again. Until 7 p.m. tonight, of course.
Did you know:
Since the 2008-09 season, Florida is 5-1 when hosting the Leafs (20GF vs 12GA)
