Ottawa Senators 3 (1-1-0) @ Florida Panthers 7 1-1-0

The Panthers showed some truly great offensive power infront of their home crowd. Scoring 4 times in the first period and adding 3 more to defeat the Sens by a large margin. Winger Sean Bergenheim came up big with a hat trick and Luongo picked up his second win of the year.

Willie Mitchell out 2 weeks

Defenseman Willie Mitchell left fridays game against the Sabres due to injury and it was reported after the game he will be out 2 weeks with an abdominal strain.

Dylan Olsen will make his season debut in Florida's next game Olsen has 13 points in 72 career games.

Excited to see Olsen make his season debut!

TOMAS KABERLE IS STILL PLAYING HOCKEY!?!?!?!

(yes, I'm aware he is on the Hartford Wolfpack IRL).

Also, the goaltending physics in the game are still off.

Florida Panthers 1 (3-1-0) @ Washington Capitals 2 (3-1-0)

Both teams surprised everyone in this game and played a very slow paced, defense focused game tonight leading to a 2-1 win for the Capitals. Florida had a good sign as young D-man Olsen got an assist in his first game of the year.
