Recap: Panthers stitch 4-0 shutout win over Blue Jackets

Sergei Bobrovsky made 22 saves and Sam Reinhart collected three points as the Florida Panthers blanked the Columbus Blue Jackets by a 4-0 count at FLA Live Arena.

The shutout was Bobrovsky’s first of the season, first-ever against Columbus, and the 38th of his NHL career.

After the veteran keeper made big stops on early chances by Erik Gudbranson(!), Gustav Nyquist and Patrik Laine, it was the Cats who opened the scoring at 9:04 when Brandon Montour settled a Gustav Forsling cross that hit his skate and blasted the puck by Elvis Merzlikins from the top of the left circle with Matthew Tkachuk providing a screen.
