Panthers can't stick the landing, fall 2-1 to Jets

"Eetu Luostarinen opened the scoring with 5:20 left in the first, seconds after a cross-checking penalty on Logan Stanley expired. After taking a pass from Gustav Forsling, Evan Rodrigues let go of a wrister from just above the right circle that deflected off Luostarinen and beat Eric Comrie. Unfortunately, that's all the struggling Cats would be able to get into the net as Comrie finished the game with 27 saves to earn Third Star honors."

"Cole Perfetti would end Sergei Bobrovsky's shutout bid 8:34 into third when he potted the rebound after the Panthers keeper denied Gabe Vilardi, who made a great move to get by Sam Bennett. Adam Lowry was credited with the second assist. Pefettti scored Winnipeg's only goal in Florida's 2-1 shootout win on January 22. Mark Scheifele notched his fourth game-winner of the season with 4:14 remaining."
