Recap: Surging Panthers roar back in the third to beat Devils 4-2

Down two after forty minutes, the Florida Panthers roared back to beat the New Jersey Devils 4-2 to conclude a seven-game homestand at FLA Live Arena with 11 of 14 points.

After the Panthers outplayed the Devils in the first period, but were forced to settle for a scoreless tie thanks to a 16-save performance by rookie Akira Schimd, New Jersey took the lead with a shorthanded goal 2:16 into the second.

John Marino took a pass from Ryan Graves behind his own net and rung the puck around the boards. It bounced off Brandon Montour at the blue line, allowing Nico Hischier to break out 2-on-1 with Yegor Sharangovich.
