The Florida Panthers edged the Nashville Predators 2-1 on Friday night to end a five-game losing streak at the BB&T Center.
Greg McKegg lit the lamp for the second straight game to open the scoring 2:24 into the tilt. Derek MacKenzie dumped the puck off the boards behind the net and the carom eluded both Nashville defenders and came to McKegg in the slot. The 24-year-old went to the backhand to throw the puck up and over goaltender Juuse Saros. Paul Thompson also picked up an assist on the goal.
