By Sam Laskaris Writer They’re getting closer. Six Nations’ Brandon Montour and his Florida Panthers are on the verge of advancing to the Stanley Cup finals. Thanks to a 1-0 victory over the visiting Carolina Hurricanes on Monday, the Panthers now hold a commanding 3-0 advantage in their best-of-seven Eastern Conference final series. The Florida squad needs just one more win to advance to the National Hockey League’s championship series and challenge for one of the world’s most prestigious trophies, the Stanley Cup. The Panthers’ first opportunity to wrap up their series against Carolina is on Wednesday night (tonight) when they host the Hurricanes in Game 4. Game time is 8 p.m. The winner of the Florida/Carolina series will square off against the Western Conference champs in the league final.
