Trocheck’s Shootout Goal Gives Panthers 3-2 Win Over Preds
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Florida finally won a game that extended past regulation time.
Vincent Trocheck scored the deciding goal in the shootout to give the Panthers a 3-2 victory over the Nashville Predators on Saturday night.
Denis Malgin and Brett Connolly scored in regulation for Florida, which has won two of three. The Panthers have gone to overtime in four of their eight games this season and lost the previous three, two in a shootout and one in overtime.
“We’ve lost three in a row in those type of situations. It’s nice to get one,” Florida coach Joel Quenneville said.
Florida’s Sam Montembeault made 25 saves and denied all three Nashville shooters in the shootout.
