Florida Panthers

Jose Theodore looks really good today; I would think he starts Mon v #Bruins #FlaPanthers

Sorry for not being that active latley. Time has gone down for me. Next week i will be in Rome and can´t cover what happend.

At least the P´s got a point last night.

Clemmer was decent, Repik looked good so did Santorelli, Rask was outstanding and the Panthers need Bergenheim, Skille and Sturm back badly...

[Ballsakic]

I hope Theodore will be able to play this week.
I will try to help with updates Key if I can while your gone.

I just vomitted a little after seeing the results for the game and the Dadonov trade.

From all i know he requested a trade but Dale really for two career AHLérs? I know we needed depth for San Antonio but come on. Lil Geno was pretty good last season...

Dissappointing how the season is turning right now.

And now finally a win in a extremly terrible game by the Panthers.

They looked dead tired and got outworked by the Jets. Clemmenson took them on his back and won it.

Steeg finally with a 3 point night reaction after he was put on another line.

Santorelli with the goal and as always hard working, he isn´t suited for the 4th line put the guy back on line two and give him some wingers finally...

Bergy needs to get back fully healthy, you saw that he missed some time.

Thanks as always for the great coverage buddy!

So in your opinion will we see Versteeg/Weiss/Flash reunited and start scoring even close to the blistering pace from the first 30 or so games of the season? In other words, is this new 60 pt pace for Flash something we should expect as the stabilization after a hot start, or can we still expect him to hit closer to 65-70?

Currently my opinion is in jeopardy. I still think Steeg is the safest bet cause he relies on hard work much more than the other two. Flash is a very streaky guy and i assume he gets hot again the moment Weiss ups his game again. Panthers need their bottom 9 get fully healthy or a trade to shake things up.

Wouldn´t buy on Flash right now but thats just my gut feeling.

Nice piece on Fleischmann's blood clotting condition: http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports...tinel+Blogs%29

The Panthers are keeping in the race despite not being able to win games, but finally Flash was on the scoreboard again.

Clemmer with another solid night, the D held their own together that will now miss Kulikov for up to 8 weeks.

Versteeg is the only one really playing at a great level if this play continues the season will not end in the playoffs...

Forgot to add the panthers have traded Kennedy for Sean Sullivan to help Rochester out.

Rumors have it that we might see a Colby Robak callup soon. Watch out.

[tgraveline]

So do they make the playoffs still or do you see the Panthers succumbing to this in the end?

Hey ya Key, just read through your whole blog, looks like alot of hard work has gone into it, good effort.
Not much mention on prospects, i was wondering what you thought of Zach Hyman

Hey Raj old bud,
not too much demand for the prospects so far. If there is true intrest i gladly focus some on those, since there are several neat ones out there.

Zach Hyman is one of them. He is has 9 points in 27 games so at the college level after tearing apart the opponents last season in a much worse league.
It´s still very tough to categorize how good his upside is, but right now one should be realistic he was a very late pick with some potential and seems to have a shot at the NHL someday, thats more than you can expect of the usual late round pick. In ultra deep leagues he is worth a gamble but i wouldn´t hesistate to include him in any deal.

Hope that helped.
