Brian Campbell is one of the three finalists for the Lady Byng Trophy. This award goes to a player who had an excellent year while still exhibiting "sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct." That's typically measured by a players ability to stay out of the sin bin. Campbell had an impressive 53 points in 82 games while collecting just six penalty minutes. A blueliner hasn't won the Lady Byng Trophy since Red Kelly earned it for his play in 1953-54.

Brian Campbell is expecting a tough battle in Game 6, as the Florida Panthers look to eliminate the New Jersey Devils on the road and advance to the second round of the playoffs. "Come Tuesday, we're going to need a lot of desperation," Campbell said. "They'll come at us hard again. We expect nothing but what they've given us all series." The workhorse defenseman logged 28:58 during Game 5's 3-0 shutout victory and he picked up his fourth point of the series with a power-play assist.

Brian Campbell scored a goal and an assist in Florida's 4-3 win over the Devils in Game Three of their first round playoff series Tuesday. After falling behind 3-0 early in the game, Florida took charge of the contest and came all the way to secure a win, capped off by Campbell's game-winner early in the second period. Sean Bergenheim also netted a goal and an assist in the win while Jason Garrison and Mike Weaver also found the back of the net in the thrilling victory.

Brian Campbell picked up just six minutes in penalties during the 2011-12 campaign, while averaging a whopping 26:53 of ice time per match. His average ice time tied Chicago's Duncan Keith for the highest in the league, but unlike Keith he skated in all 82 games. Campbell also concluded the year tied for second among all defensemen with 53 points. His lack of time spent in the penalty box should garner him contention for the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy.

The Florida Panthers will win their first division title in franchise history tonight if they end their regular season with a victory over the Carolina Panthers, and veteran defenseman Brian Campbell is asking his team to treat the game as if it were a playoff match. The Panthers go into Saturday with five consecutive losses and eight losses in the past nine games. Of those nine games, however, Florida has secured at least a point in all but three. The division championship brings the third spot and a first-round meeting (with home-ice advantage) against New Jersey. If Washington beats the Rangers tonight, and the Panthers lose, the Panthers would drop to eighth and play the top-seeded New Yorkers in the post-season. "We have picked up points by going to overtime almost every night,'' Brian Campbell said. "It doesn't matter how you get in. ... We need to bring our playoff game on Saturday.''

Brian Campbell registered an assist in Thursday's game. With his 49th assist tonight, Campbell has tied Robert Svehla's Panthers franchise record for most assists by a dman in a season. Campbell has enjoyed an excellent year in 2011-12 and should be a Norris Trophy candidate.
