"Eetu Luostarinen opened the scoring 5:27 into the action, on Florida's first shot on goal, when he backhanded the puck out of the air off the shaft his stick with the assists going to Mackie Samoskevich and Evan Rodrigues. With Steven Santini serving time in the sin bin, Max Crozier and Anthony Cirelli combined to work the puck up the ice where Jake Guentzel caught up to it and then beat Sergei Bobrovsky from the left circle to tie the score at the 13:05 mark."
"The Panthers had loads and loads of man-advantage time in the third, but they couldn't find the equalizer and Kucherov put the dagger into the empty net with 56 seconds left on the clock to give the Bolts the season-series lead two games to one. Florida's power play was the main culprit in this one. Given a bevy of chances, the Panthers finished the night just 1-for-9 and surrendered Guentzel's shorthanded marker. Bobrovsk"
