DETROIT (CBSMiami/SportsDirect) – While the season is still young enough that there is no reason to panic, things are getting a little dicey around the Florida Panthers.
It has been an inauspicious start to a six-game road trip for Florida, which has dropped a pair of one-goal decisions and lost its head coach to start the trek.
The Panthers will play their second game under general manager and interim coach Tom Rowe when they visit the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday night.
Gerard Gallant was dismissed after Florida’s 3-2 loss at Carolina and Rowe’s debut behind the bench was spoiled in a 2-1 shootout defeat at Chicago, although the GM saw a “lot of positives” in the setback.
