The star of the night for the Florida Panthers tonight against the Wild...well it's none other than Cory Stillman. He's still got it! The Cats started off slow allowing 2 goals in the first period, & not being able to put one in the net until early in the 3rd when Frolik netted a sweet snap shot. Stillman tied it at 2-all halfway through the 3rd, and from then on it was all Panthers. The game remained tied through overtime & then it was shootout time. Vokoun denied the Wild in their own house & Stillman put in the Cats 3rd round shot to close the books. This marks win number 3 for the Panthers with their next game at the Avalanche on Thursday night. Dare I dream for 4-in-a-row...I can't...but I desperately want to.
Side-note:
During the 1st intermission of the game they had a special feature on nicknames for the boys on the team. Captain Bryan McCabe was asked about some of the ones he had heard throughout his career & with a smirk he replied how it wouldn't be appropriate to say them on camera. (God damn I love him) So for your pleasure...the Panthers nicknames:
McCabe - Caber
Ballard - Bally
Weiss - Weisser
Horton - Horty
Clemmenson - Clemmer
Allen -Ally
Campbell - Soupy
Dvorak -D’Bo
Reinprecht - Rhino
Matthias - Danger
Booth -Boothy
Vokoun - Vokie
Stillman - Stiller
