The Florida Panthers got the start they wanted, but it all went awry after that, as they surrendered six straight goals in an embarrassing 6-1 defeat to the Washington Capitals, who went up two games to one in the series.
Jonathan Huberdeau took a crossing pass from Anthony Duclair and fired the puck past Ilya Samsonov’s glove 2:45 into the tilt.
Huby strikes first!
