    This time, the shot-happy Florida Panthers were right on target.

    Two nights after losing to Atlanta despite a franchise-record 55 shots, the Panthers took advantage of their 50 shots against Carolina in a 7-4 victory Friday night in the first of a home-and-home set.

    "We played a lot in their end," said Chris Higgins, who broke a tie late in the second period with his third goal of the season and finished with eight shots. "We certainly put up a lot of shots and they went in for us tonight."

    The 105 shots are the highest two-game total in Panthers history, and they also recorded back-to-back games with 50 or more shots for the first time.
