The Florida Panthers will play their first game in Utah tonight when they visit the NHL’s newest team. A team, one may notice, is not all that new. Unlike previous expansion teams, the Utah Hockey Club was not slapped together one offseason before making its debut in a matter of weeks.

Utah sports a 5-7-4 record in its barn and has also lost its last three straight at home. Karel Vejmelka is tonight’s expected starter, and in his last five games, he possesses a 1-3-1 record with a .901 SV% and a 3.03 GAA.
