With tonight's 5-3 win over the St. Louis Blues, the Panthers have moved ahead of the Montreal Canadiens to take the fifth spot in the conference with 76 points. Granted, the Habs have now played one fewer game than the Cats.
Buffalo lost to Ottawa, which keeps the Sabres at 73 points, but Carolina's big 9-3 win over Tampa Bay has the Hurricanes up to sixth.
For the Panthers, it was Tomas Vokoun's 500th career game and what better way to remember it than with a big win, capped off with David Booth's second hat trick of the season - the first was back in November against the Ducks.
Brynäs played again today and lost, unfortunately. Anders Lindbäck played very well again, while Rochester dropped their second in as many days to Lake Erie, a team they needed to beat to have a shot at improving their spot in the standings. The losses hurt, and shots tonight were lopsided in favour of the Monsters.
By the way, don't forget that the time change is tonight at 2AM. Spring forward, fall back and all that jazz.
