Gameday, Panthers vs. Hurricanes, W 5-1

This will be the first time we've seen José play in a game since April 26, 2012! It's been TOO LONG!! I'm so excited!

Southeast rivals square off as Panthers play Canes

Wow! What a start to the game! After one period, the Panthers are leading 4-0!! José has stopped all 12 shots faced and looked great doing it.

After 2 the Panthers are leading 5-1. I can't get NHL's website to work right now to check, but I'm pretty sure he's faced 29 total shots so far, so that was 17 faced in that period.

And he looks outstanding. I don't see any rust at all. He kept in good shape during the lockout.

What a great way to start the season! The Panthers held on and won 5-1, and José saved 41 of 42 shots!!! Great game for our goalie.

And Jonathan Huberdeau made his NHL debut and scored the Panthers' first goal.
