Thursday Caterwaul: Panthers pre-ASG Fantasy Draft Open Forum
In three previous NHL All-Star Game appearances - twice as a starter - representing Buffalo (2007, '08) and Chicago (2009), defenseman Brian Campbell has 1 goal, 3 assists, 3 SOG & 1 GW assist (all scoring in last two games). Will it make a difference onstage tonight?

- AP recently released their updated Stanley Cup odds for those who care./
Wednesday’s Organizational Transactions:
- D Tyson Strachan to SA from FLA
