Aleksander Barkov, Carter Verhaeghe and Frank Vatrano each scored their tenth goal of the season in the second period, and the Florida Panthers won for the fifth time its past six games by posting a 4-2 decision over the visiting Chicago Blackhawks.
Barkov, who also added an assist, would turn it up to 11 midway through the third, with the assists going to Verhaeghe and Anthony Duclair, who had two helpers in his first game in two weeks. After taking a rather innocent looking cross from Verhaeghe, Duclair spotted Barkov open down low and hit him with a perfect pass.
