Gameday 36: Florida Panthers at Carolina Hurricanes
"Tired Florida had its four-game winning streak snapped Saturday night in a 6-2 home ice loss to the St. Louis Blues. Goals from A.J. Greer and Sam Reinhart helped the Panthers overcome a two-goal deficit, but Justin Faulk's second period buzzer-beater took the wind out of Florida's sails. The Blues tacked on three in the third, dropping the Cats out of a playoff position."
"After having its five-game winning streak halted in Sunrise, the Hurricanes were beaten 6-4 by the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday in the finale of a three-game road trip that saw Carolina uncharacteristically blow another three-goal lead. Eric Robinson, Jackson Blake, Bradly Nadeau and Andrei Svechnikov scored the goals, but goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov had a rough go of it, surrendering five goals on 23 shots."
