Minnesota has won six of the last eight meetings, but is looking for payback for a 4-2 loss to the Panthers on Dec. 22. Florida has won five straight with the last four coming at home, but now the Panthers go on the road where they have lost three of their last four. The Wild had a two-game winning streak snapped in a 3-0 loss at Nashville in the second of a home-and-home situation on Saturday. Alex Stalock saved 26 shots for the Wild, who should have Devan Dubnyk back in goal tonight. Dubnyk recently returned from an injury and beat the Predators on Friday allowing two goals. The Panthers are 9-20 their last 29 road contests, and Minnesota is 7-1 its last eight home games. Also, Florida is 5-15 the last 20 meetings and 0-5 its last five games at Minnesota. Play the Wild.
