NHL Schedule: Blackhawks, Blues lead weekly national televised games
Saturday
Florida Panthers at Washington Capitals (7:30 p.m. ET/ 4:30 p.m. PT on NBCSN)
Why you should watch: Alex Ovechkin has cooled a bit from his historic start, but he still has three points in four games since he posted back-to-back hat tricks to open the season.
The Panthers are 2-2-0 and looking to find their footing after a .500 start. A loss to the Penguins on Saturday didn’t help, but Jonathan Huberdeau’s been a revelation to start the year. The 24-year old winger has five points in four games, including two goals in the loss to Pittsburgh.

Skip it if: Beautiful fall Saturdays are hard to come by. Down here in Houston we’re finally getting a break in the weather, and it’s hard to sit inside watching the games when the sun is shining and the humidity has given way.
Verdict: Who are we kidding? We’ll be watching this at Puck Prose HQ, and you should too. At a minimum, these two teams can score.

Think Montreal will bounce back? Are we overrating the Central Division? Is foliage worth missing out on that Saturday match up?
