January 23rd, Florida Panthers @ Dallas Stars, 8:30 PM
January 23rd brings the last of the five straight games against the Western conference. Once again, the Panthers are on the road against a tough team from the Central division, the Dallas Stars.
Dallas is 4th out of 7 teams in their division, but their 51 points prove that this will not be an easy game for Florida to win. The Stars have been especially strong at home this year with a 16-5-1 home record.
The Cats should focus on stopping Tyler Seguin, who leads Dallas with 21 goals and 40 points. The Panthers might face a familiar foe in this game as Ben Bishop, the longtime goalie of the Tampa Bay Lightning, is now the usual starter for the Dallas Stars.
