Three: the number of goals by which the Panthers’ Jason Garrison (11) leads the rest of the league’s defensemen. His 7 power play markers are one less than the total individual goal output of runners-up Nick Lidstrom, Niklas Kronwall, and (now injured) Shea Weber.

Why last night rocked:
- Um, 24/7?/
Why last night jonesed:
- WSH over NYR, 4-1; gonna be an ornery band of Rangers in town Friday
- BOS over PHX, 2-1 (OT); seven-straight for the Broons (with 3 games-in-hand over FLA)
- NJ over BUF, 3-1; Devils pass 40-point mark/
Why tonight is a Big Deal in SoFla:
Ever consider becoming a ridiculously passionate fan of the Kings for one night? Your invite has arrived…
- TOR at CAR, 7 p.m.
- PHI at PIT, 7
- CGY at NYI, 7
- MTL at TB, 7:30
- LA at WPG, 8:30/
Next up for the Cats:
Tomorrow at home vs the Rags. There will lie the LBC Game Thread, winner of the Congressional Medal of Honor, survivor of countless incursions behind enemy lines. Killed for vagrancy in Jerkwater, USA…but rises from the ashes at 7.
Did you know:
Since the 2005-06 season, the Panthers are 7-2-0-4 when hosting the Rangers, with each club combining for a staggering seven shootout finishes. Florida has won the past two matches in Sunrise, both ending in regulation.
Still waiting on:
Some official news regarding John Madden; stay tuned.
UPDATE: Per Harvey/GR, Madden has arrived for a physical and to continue contract talks. Thx, flpanther360.
