Panthers survive late scare, beat Nashville to keep playoff hopes alive | Miami Herald

To say the Florida Panthers are hanging on to their season by a thread might be generous — it’s more like a strand of dental floss.

It took a video replay wiping out an apparent Nashville Predators goal with 0.3 seconds remaining to give the Panthers an incredibly dramatic 2-1 victory Tuesday night.

Jonathan Huberdeau and Colton Sceviour scored, and Roberto Luongo made 45 saves as the Florida Panthers kept their slim playoff hopes alive.

Nashville’s Filip Forsberg appeared to score with 0.3 seconds left in the third period, but, upon review, the goal was wiped out for interference, giving Florida the win.
