CALGARY (CBSMiami/SportsDirect) – Games away from home have been kind to the Florida Panthers lately, which could serve them well in the coming days.
The Panthers vie for their fifth consecutive victory away from home on Tuesday when they open a four-game road trip against the Calgary Flames.
“We have to stay in the fight here,” Florida interim coach Tom Rowe told the Miami Herald. “We’re trying to catch that eighth spot (in the Eastern Conference) so every point is going to be huge.”
The Panthers have won three of four overall heading into a date with Calgary, which flustered Florida to the tune of a 6-0 shellacking in the teams’ last meeting at the Scotiabank Saddledome.
