Cody Ceci and Will Smith scored for the Sharks (14-32-6), who have lost six straight and nine of ten. Alexandar Georgiev allowed four goals on 15 shots before being pulled early in the second period for Yaroslav Askarov, who stopped 13 of 16 shots in relief.

The Florida Panthers will look to return to the win column after blowing a third-period lead when they continue their four-game road swing Saturday against the San Jose Sharks.

After a tough 2-1 loss in Los Angeles, the Florida Panthers headed up the California coast and will face the San Jose Sharks tonight. While the Kings have somewhat owned the Panthers in recent years – they are 7-0-1 in the past three seasons with five straight home wins — the Sharks have not fared nearly as well.
