After yet another disappointing display on the gulf coast, the Florida Panthers (13-11-4) return to host the Seattle Kraken (15-8-3) at FLA Live Arena this evening. The Panthers failed to build momentum after its big win over Detroit this week, dropping a 4-1 decision to the Tampa Bay Lightning ysterday by surrendering three goals in the third period. The second-year Kraken are one of the biggest surprises in the league this season, but they are going through a bit of a struggle right now. Seattle has lost three straight games to Florida, Montreal and Washington, scoring just four times in those defeats.
