Spencer Knight will get his turn in net as the Florida Panthers look to sweep the Dallas Stars in the NHL’s Global Series in Tampere, Finland on Saturday, per team reporter Jameson Olive.

The Panthers are looking for their fifth win in a row and to move to 7-1-1 in their past eight games.

They will not make any other changes to their lineup from their 6-4 win over Dallas on Friday.

Knight is 2-1-0 with a .898 save percentage and a 3.03 goals-against average and has rebounded nicely since a rough 5-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres to open his season on Oct. 12.

He won both of his past two starts, going 2-0-0 with a .917 save percentage and a 2.57 goals-against average.

Covering something like this from home just is not the same from being there live. And I understand that I cannot do this thing justice from what I’m writing, so every day, I will link a few stories at the bottom of my articles from people who were there so you can get the coverage you deserve. (The Pucks and Palms travel budget just could not cover this trip. My sincerest apologies.)
