Recap: Panthers march to 4-1 win over the Penguins
Photo by Joel Auerbach/Getty ImagesFour different players lit the lamp and Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 31 shots as the Florida Panthers stayed firmly ensconced in the wild card or bust pack with a 4-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins.
While the offense was gearing up during the first period, the Panthers concentrated on playing defense and held the visitors to just three shots on goal.
The Cats finally starting testing Casey DeSmith and broke through with 22 seconds left in the frame when Matthew Tkachuk sent Carter Verhaeghe in on the goaltender and he put a shot off of his left pad that Sam Bennett swept home on the backhand.
Bennett with the rebound!
