The Panthers and new coach Joel Quenneville will make their only trip to Long Island of the season tonight when the puck drops at the Coliseum at 7:00 p.m. (the Islanders host them against next month, but that will be at Barclays Center).
Florida’s only win of the season came in the home half of a home-and-home with the Lightning last Saturday; they forced overtime late in their game last night with Sabres, but lost in the shootout. Sergei Bobrovsky went last night, so tonight, the Islanders will throw pucks at Samuel Montembault, whom they saw in the second-to-last game last season.
