The Panthers have been powerless to prevent their two-game losing streak — as in 0 for 8 on the power play in those contests.
Florida’s power play, which had been No. 1 in the NHL since Nov. 1, went 0 for 4 on Tuesday in a 3-0 home loss to the Dallas Stars, who are No. 1 in the Western Conference and No. 2 in the NHL in fewest overall goals allowed.
The Panthers had been the only team in the NHL not to be shut out this season, but Stars backup goalie Anton Khudobin made 30 saves to end that streak.
