Book a Florida holiday and enjoy some NHL action!

Sports fans taking a Florida holiday this month will find plenty of action unfolding in the Sunshine State, most notably on the ice.

Florida may be famed for its clement weather, tasty citrus fruits and world-class theme parks, but it also sports a pretty good ice hockey team as well.

The Florida Panthers, who compete in the NHL, have a number of important matches lined up over the coming month.

On January 26th, they will be hosting the Montreal Canadiens, before welcoming the New York Islanders to the BankAtlantic Center on January 31st.

Next month, they will welcome the Anaheim Ducks, Calgary Flames and Carolina Hurricanes to their impressive venue.

Picking up some wins during these encounters would help the team make a late-season push on the playoff places.

They currently lie in 12th, with 48 points, two behind the Islanders, who occupy the final Eastern Conference playoff berth in eighth, so qualification for the post-season remains a distinct possibility.

Sports lovers will find plenty to amuse themselves in the state of Florida, which also boasts some of the country's top basketball teams in the NBA's Miami Heat and Orlando Magic.
