Jagr passes Messier, but Panthers fall 3-1 to Bruins

Florida Panthers winger Jaromir Jagr picked up an assist in the Florida Panthers 3-1 loss to the Boston Bruins Thursday night at BB&T Center. The helper, his 1,8888 career point, moved Jagr past Mark Messie, giving the 44-year-old sole possession of second place in all-time NHL scoring behind The Great One, Wayne Gretzky.

Goalies Tuukka Rask and James Reimer kept things scoreless in an opening period that saw the Panthers outshot the Bruins by a 12-8 count.

The second period was completely dominated by the visiting B’s, who didn’t take long to open the scoring after the action restarted, thanks to a sensational play by Tory Krug.
