2011-12 Florida Panthers
21-13-8 (50 points), 1st in NHL Southeast Division
Goals For: 109 (18th of 30), Goals Against: 116 (14th of 30)

Biggest Gain: Marcel Goc
Lord Dracula has returned, and has bought offense with him. After missing a month in a half (last game was against Dallas on November 15), Goc scored in every game this week with four points (2G/2A), helping his shooting percentage jump from 8.0% to 12.9%.

Biggest Loss: Tomas Fleischmann
Second time I listed Fleischmann on the biggest losses since premiering Ups & Downs with him as the biggest gain. Flash played 53 minutes, scored zero points, and went minus-three. He continues to lead the team in shots on goal (111), but only had four this week.

Goaltenders	Trend	Notes
Scott Clemmensen		A .940 weekly save percentage (67 shots against) on 123 minutes on the ice. Nice rebound from last week.
Jacob Markstrom		An alright game against the Devils, allowed three goals on 27 shots before injuring his knee.
Jose Theodore		Knee - Out approximately two weeks
Defensemen
Brian Campbell		Two assists for Campbell in 60 minutes on the ice.
Keaton Ellerby		If Ellerby falls in a forest, and no one is around to hear it, does he get ice time?
Jason Garrison		Three blocked shots and four hits this week. Garrison has recorded a hit in 16 consecutive games, dating back to December 5th. He has a total of 34 during the streak.
Erik Gudbranson		Nine hits this week for Guds, who also had four blocked shots. He ended the week with a minus-one, which was against Vancouver.
Ed Jovanovski		Minus-two week for Jovocop with four hits and five blocked shots.
Dmitry Kulikov		Scored his fourth of the season, the game-tying goal against Vancouver, along with four hits and three blocked shots.
Mike Weaver		Three hits (one in each game) and six blocked shots (two in each game). Also got signed to an extension.
Forwards
Krys Barch		Scored a goal(!) and spent zero minutes in the penalty box. Who is this guy?
Sean Bergenheim		Lower-body injury

Tomas Fleischmann		See "Biggest losses."

Tomas Kopecky		Two assists for Kopecky who played 54 minutes during the week.
John Madden		Two games and 29 minutes for Madden. No points yet.
Shawn Matthias		One point for Danger, but also a minus-two. With the return of players from injuries, it will be interesting to see where he plays.
Michal Repik		Scored an assist in New Jersey and had three hits in just 27 minutes.
Mikael Samuelsson		The return of Samuelsson marked the return of his offensive touch as he scored three points (1G/2A). Also had five hits, three against his former team.

Jack Skille		Separated shoulder
Marco Sturm		Upper-body injury
Scottie Upshall		Upper-body injury
Kris Versteeg		Slow week for Versteeg, who had an assist and a minus-three. His defense did pick up with four hits and three blocked shots though.
