Carolina Hurricanes v Florida Panthers

After tonight's game against the visiting Carolina Hurricanes, Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice said he had two trains of thinking, and which one he chose relied on how the New York Islanders game on Wednesday turned out.

The Islanders triumphed. The plan is A. The Panthers will "try and finish up the standings as far as we possibly can," according to Maurice. For the game, we'll dress in our finest lineup.

Florida will face the Boston Bruins with Game 1 possibly taking place on Monday night at Boston Garden if it loses in any way on Thursday night, earning them a second tiebreaker berth.
