The Florida Panthers return home to face the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday after taking a step back in their climb toward the top of the Atlantic Division. Florida, which won five of six to move within four points of first-place Boston, scored twice in a span of 18 seconds in the first period to take a two-goal lead at Carolina on Saturday but yielded the final four goals - moments before the Bruins rallied for an overtime victory.

The Carolina Hurricanes' blueliners are seeing red - namely the goal light - as they visit the struggling Detroit Red Wings on Sunday. Carolina defensemen have produced an NHL-most 20 of the club's 80 goals this season after Dougie Hamilton and Brett Pesce scored in Saturday's 4-2 victory over Florida, giving them five wins in the last six games.

The Arizona Coyotes lead the league in goals allowed per game and their tandem between the pipes has been a big reason why as they continue a quest to end a frustrating seven-year playoff drought. Darcy Kuemper is expected to take his turn in net Sunday night as the Coyotes go after a sixth victory in eight games when they host the Edmonton Oilers in a battle of the top two teams in the Pacific Division.
