When it comes to the Florida Panthers at home and on the road it’s definitely a tale of two kitties. After rolling to four straight wins at FLA Live Arena, the Cats left the friendly confines of Sunrise and fell 6-5 in a shootout to the Dallas Stars.
Aleksander Barkov notched a power-play goal on a one-timer from Jonathan Huberdeau to open the scoring and a beautiful shorthanded goal to put the Panthers up 2-1 eighteen seconds into the middle frame. Michael Raffl scored the Stars first period goal from John Klingberg and Radek Faksa. Barkov also drew the secondary assist on Huberdeau’s goal with 29 seconds left in regulation time that earned the Cats a point.
