SUNRISE, Fla. - It's been a little bit, hasn't it?
More than 10 months since they last played a regular-season game - and roughly four months since their short stint in the NHL's postseason bubble -- the Panthers will return to the ice when they kick off their 2020-21 campaign against the Blackhawks at BB&T Center on Sunday night.
Getting in a few extra days of practice after having their initial opener against the Stars pushed back due to COVID-19 reasons, the Panthers believe they're more than prepared to get things going at this point, with both players and coaches itching to get back to doing what they love.
