SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Fans were throwing hats onto the ice early in the third period to pay tribute to Sam Reinhart, after they thought he got his third goal of the night.
Small problem: They were wrong. That goal wasn’t his.
Turns out, the hats just came early. Reinhart wound up getting the third goal after all, Carter Verhaeghe scored twice and the Florida Panthers pushed their winning streak to five games by beating the Philadelphia Flyers 6-3 on Thursday night.
