Panthers implode late in ugly 7-3 loss to Ducks
"Down 4-3 at the start of third, the Cats kept it close until Jacob Trouba snuck in to pot a rebound after Cutter Gauthier redirected Mason McTavish's shot from the right point on Sergei Bobrovsky at the 11:23 mark. The assist was Gauthier's fourth point of the night. The deficit grew to two 1:38 later when Nikita Nesterenko threw the puck towards the cage after taking a pass from Troy Terry and garbageman extraordinaire Chris Kreider deflected it by Bobrovsky."
"With Carter Verhaeghe off for slashing, Gauthier belted a cross-ice pass from Terry into the net at 15:17 to give the Ducks the lead back. The Panthers would forge ahead in the second period with Evan Rodrigues doing the heavy lifting. Gustav Forsling and Mackie Samsokevich would combine to send eRod in alone on Dostal and he whipped a wrister home from the slot to knot the score at 5:21."
Anaheim Ducks scored three goals in a 3:04 span early in the third period to turn a 4-3 game into a 7-3 victory over the Florida Panthers. Cutter Gauthier recorded a hat trick, including two power-play goals, and finished with four points. Jacob Trouba, Nikita Nesterenko (via a Chris Kreider deflection), and Jansen Harkins scored during the third-period outburst. Brad Marchand, Evan Rodrigues, and Eetu Luostarinen scored for Florida. The Panthers battled the Ducks' speed and pressure but surrendered momentum after a turnover by Donovan Sebrango. Sergei Bobrovsky allowed multiple goals amid the collapse.
