Sometimes, it’s nice to lend an assist, and that’s what Jonathan Huberdeau did on Thursday night — again and again and again.
Huberdeau had his third three-assist game of the season, and Roberto Luongo snapped a personal five-game losing streak as the host Florida Panthers defeated the Arizona Coyotes 4-2.
Huberdeau leads Florida with 59 assists, which is his career high. He assisted on goals by Aleksander Barkov, Mike Hoffman and MacKenzie Weegar.
Barkov added an empty net goal with 50 seconds left for his 34th goal of the season, tying Hoffman for the team high.
