NHL Playoff Recaps: Panthers rally late in Game 3 to claw back into series

Carter Verhaeghe scored 4:27 into overtime to give the host Florida Panthers a crucial 3-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final Thursday in Sunrise, Fla.

The Golden Knights still lead the best-of-seven series 2-1. Game 4 will be played Saturday in Florida.

Verhaeghe and Matthew Tkachuk each collected a goal and an assist and Brandon Montour also scored for the Panthers. Tkachuk tied the game with 2:13 left in regulation after Florida pulled goalie Sergei Bobrovsky for an extra attacker.

Bobrovsky stopped 25 shots in a strong performance, his biggest a late-third-period save on Michael Amadio that kept it one-goal game.
