The Florida Panthers made history last night with a 2-1 overtime victory over the Philadephia Flyers, matching the 1963-64 Chicago Blackhawks record of eleven straight home wins to start a season.
Aaron Ekblad scored the game-winning goal 2:39 into the extra session after passing off to Jonathan Huberdeau and moving into the slot to one-time the return feed home. Sam Bennett, who tied the game in the third period, drew the secondary assist.
Ekblad is the hero in OT; @FlaPanthers tie all-time #NHL record with 11 straight home wins.
