Panthers roar back to nip Hurricanes 4-3 in overtime

Photo by Eliot J. Schechter/NHLI via Getty ImagesAleksander Barkov scored 24 seconds into overtime to lift the Florida Panthers to a 4-3 comeback victory over the Carolina Hurricanes, ending a six-game hex against the Bunch of Jerks.

Barkov took a hand-off from goaltender Chris Driedger and carried deep into the Carolina zone three-on-three and wisely decided to shoot. He used a backpedaling Jaccob Slavin as a screen and was able to fire the puck through the pads of Alex Nedeljkovic for the game-winner.

MAN ON A MISSION! BARKY is your No. 1 STAR!
