On today’s edition of the Locked On FLORIDA Panthers Podcast, Armando Velez(@Mandoman12) is joined by Florida Panthers Historian Francisco Oporta(@fjojr and @FLACatsHistory) to the show to discuss the 6-4 loss to the Minnesota Wild as they complete a season sweep. Florida was once again without Captain Aleksander Barkov and lost William Lockwood in the middle of the first period after a fight with Brandon Duhaime. The tone was set when William Lockwood hits Marc-Andre Fleury behind the net. As far as pace, Florida had a hard time dictating it. Friday night saw a multitude of penalties for only 41:01 of 5-on-5. The Panthers Penalty kill went 1/6 on the night while outscoring Minnesota 4-0 at even strength. Minnesota was able to get bodies in front of the net to take the goaltenders eyes away while also getting the Panthers penalty killers out of position to get quality shooting lanes. Aaron Ekblad had a four-point night and got two primary assists on two goals that cut the deficit to one at 8:23 of the third period, the goals were 18 seconds apart. Florida controlled three quarters of the third period (shot attempts were 46-15 in all situations in the third period), but it was too little too late as Minnesota sealed it with an empty-netter to give them their sixth goal non-even strength. The guys discuss when they thought this game was lost, and how beneficial it will be for the Panthers to get back on the road, a place that they have felt comfortable in. We discuss this and more on today’s edition of the Locked On FLORIDA Panthers Podcast: Your Team, Every Day.
