SUNRISE, Fla. – Florida Panthers forward Jaromir Jagr is now alone in fourth place on the NHL's all-time goal scoring list after netting his 732nd career goal in a 5-4 shootout victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday night at the BB&T Center.
The historic tally came on the power play with 11.5 seconds remaining in the first period after the 43-year-old forward corralled a cross-ice pass from Aleksander Barkov and one-timed it over the shoulder of Canucks goaltender Ryan Miller.
“That goal is so sweet and the win is even sweeter,” said Jagr, who helped the Panthers improve to 10-3-0 in their past 13 games.
