Goaltenders	Trend	Notes
Scott Clemmensen		Clemmensen had his winning streak broken in Buffalo, but played some solid hockey, allowing six goals during the week (four against Washington) on 63 shots.
Jose Theodore		Yeah, yeah, yeah, Theodore allowed six goals in two periods against New York. But also shutout against Boston in his 600th career NHL game.
Defensemen
Brian Campbell		See "Biggest gains."
Keaton Ellerby		Another week spent in the press-box
Jason Garrison		The B-52 Bomber scored two points this week, his only goal being the big 5-on-3 powerplay goal in Buffalo. Add in eight hits and 12 blocked shots, and you got another solid week.
Erik Gudbranson		Scored his first NHL goal, dished out eight hits, and went minus-four. That's about it.
Ed Jovanovski		See "Biggest losses."
Dmitry Kulikov		Scored four points (three against Washington), got six hits (three against New York), and blocked five shots. Kid is good.
Mike Weaver		Scored a point against the Capitals (an assists, of course) and had only one hit during the week. He did block four shots, however.
Forwards
Sean Bergenheim		Bergenheim has yet to record an assist this season. He did up his goal total to four against Washington and delivered 10 hits during the week. Also went minus-four.
Matt Bradley		Played one game, against New York, and had three hits.
Krys Barch		Barch has played three games for the Panthers and had spent 14 minutes in the penalty box (getting into a fight on his first shift).
Tomas Fleischmann		Fleischmann had his four game point streak end in New York. During the week he assisted on a goal in the three other games.
Marcel Goc		Out indefinitely with an Upper-body injury.
Tim Kennedy		Still only one point for Kennedy in 20 games (only point was goal on October 22nd), but he did record ten hits during the week. Since waived/reassigned to San Antonio.
Tomas Kopecky		Scored the game winning goal in the goaltending battle in Boston. Besides that, Kopecky went minus-five.
Shawn Matthias		Had two assists and went minus-three during the week. Not a great followup from his previous week.
Mikael Samuelsson		Samuelsson finally made his return to the Florida Panthers this week. Playing two games and didn't score any points. Still, he's finally playing.
Mike Santorelli		Finally scored a goal and played physical hockey with five hits. Just needs to find the consistency.
Jack Skille		Skille only added on to his team leading hits with six this week, recording three against Washington and Boston. He also blocked three shots and went minus-three. The only thing not in threes? A fight.
Marco Sturm		Zero points and a minus-one week.
Scottie Upshall		Out indefinitely with an Upper-body injury.
Kris Versteeg		Has a three-game point streak going, and oddly enough, didn't score in the Washington game. Scored the empty net goal in Boston and two assists in the last two games.
Stephen Weiss		Four point week for (alternate) captain Weiss. Three-point night against Washington (2G/1A) and assisted on Gudbranson's first NHL goal.
