HOME SWEET HOME
Tonight the Panthers play their fifth game in a five-game homestand. Entering games played March 4, the Cats led all NHL teams with 24 wins (24-6-0)
on home ice. With three more wins at FLA Live Arena, Florida would tie the club record for single season home wins (27, 2017-18). Their .800 points
percentage at home this season is the highest in franchise history. They are also eight goals away from matching their single season home goal record
(144, 2006-07). Florida currently paces all NHL teams in goals (136), five-on-five goals (94), goals per game (4.53), and shots per game (40.0) at home.
Only three teams (BOS in 1969-70 &1970-71, PHI in 1975-76) in NHL history have finished a season averaging 40 or more shots on goal at home.
DROP IT LIKE IT’S SHOT
The Panthers have recorded 185 shots on goal over their past four games, averaging 46.3 shots per game. At five-on-five play over that span, the Cats
have a 220-126 advantage in shot attempts against their opponents.
30 FOR 10
With two points March 3 vs. OTT, Mason Marchment (12-18-30) became the 10th Panthers skater to reach 30 points on the season, the most of any
NHL team. Nine different Panthers have tallied at least 12 goals, nine have produced at least 20 assists, and 13 have recorded at least 21 points.
POUR IT ON
Florida leads all teams with 219 goals scored in 2021-22, one of just two teams that have tallied over 200 goals. The Cats are the only team averaging
over four goals per game (4.06). They’ve scored at least three goals in nine of their past 10 games, owning a 6-4-0 record over that span.
