Panthers Team Report
(Mon, 01 Dec 2008 00:17:46 PST)

When the team finally boarded its train headed south, it did so knowing it had a pretty good week—but another bunch of challenges await. Florida got four of six points in its season-long three-game homestand, and getting two points at Madison Square Garden is something Florida has done only twice in its last nine visits to Manhattan.
After playing at Washington on Tuesday, the Panthers return home for a two-game set against Buffalo and Boston. Florida then embarks on a five-game road trip that is not going to be easy.
