Nathan Horton heard a who? after he was kicked back to the fourth line for a couple of games, but that’s what happens when you’re not toeing the line. At least he took the demotion seriously and picked up his pace to work his way back to the front with Olli Jokinen and Ville Peltonen in time for last week’s matchup against the New York Rangers. And with Joe Nieuwendyk also returning after recovering from back and leg injuries, well, that’s just the icing on the Florida Panthers’ cake. Tonight the Cats are hosting cross-state rivals the Tampa Bay Lightning, with whom they are 1-1 for the season. As a bonus, kids can meet their favorite players and get autographs after every home game in November. The puck drops at 7:30 at the BankAtlantic Center. Tickets range from $17 to $262.
