There was bound to be a come-down at some point, what with a perfect weekend last weekend, a rousing comeback in Columbus, an impressive win over Dallas, etc. Unsurprisingly, that come-down came down (?) at the hands of the Florida Panthers, who ended the Bruins’ winning streak at four games with a 2-1 win in […]

The Florida Panthers started strong, but a disastrous second period cost them in a 5-2 loss to the New York Islanders at UBS Arena. Matthew Tkachuk opened the scoring with a breakaway goal 8:06 into the first. Seth Jones sent a cherry-picking Tkachuk in alone on Ilya Sorokin and he pulled the keeper to the ice before roofing the puck on the backhand. Tkachuk’s second goal at 14:03 was prettier than his first as scored between his legs after being gifted the puck by Ondřej Palát after...
A sluggish first period where the Islanders gave up two goals in an afternoon game? I wouldn’t blame you if you turned your TV off after Matthew Tkachuk put the puck in the toy department with a between-the-legs shot. But… you would have missed a five-goal comeback win, led by Brayden Schenn’s three points and […]

Florida split two games at home (lost to the Wild, beat the Kraken) after finishing a road trip with a 4-1 loss in Calgary. Yes, they are last-except-for-the-Rangers in the East, but the […]
Daniil Tarasov finished with 47 saves, but couldn’t make the final stop as the Florida Panthers fell 3-2 to the Minnesota Wild at Amerant Bank Arena when Joel Eriksson Ek converted a rebound chance with five seconds left in regulation. After a scoreless first period that saw a otherworldly 19-save performance from Tarasov, the WIld finally broke through when Yakov Trenin took an entry pass from Jeff Petry and then drove to the net before setting up Marcus Foligno in the slot for the goal ...
That's Wild Joel Eriksson Ek came to save the day. With just seconds remaining in regulation, the Minnesota Wild center scored the game-winning goal to earn a much-needed 3-2 victory over the Florida Panthers. [Pioneer Press] But speaking of offense, the Wild should be g...
