The Florida Panthers rallied back from a two-goal third period deficit to earn a point before losing 5-4 to the Winnipeg Jets when Mark Scheifele scored his second goal of the game with 29 seconds left in overtime.
After tying the tilt in the final frame with their third power-play goal of the night at the 6:24 mark, that Florida couldn’t up with the winner over the final 18:07 of game play was disappointing, but they did manage to pull within three points of the New York Islanders, who lost 5-1 on home ice to the Washington Capitals, in the wild card race and still hold a game in hand.
