The Florida Panthers had their chances, but could not find the back of the net and were eliminated from the playoffs after the Tampa Bay Lightning’s 4-0 victory in Game 6.
Andrei Vasilvelskiy stopped all 29 Florida shots to post his second career postseason shutout as the Lightning advanced to the second round for the eighth time in franchise history.
The Panthers once again failed to advance past the first round and have not won a playoff series since 1996. Disappointing as the Cats’ 2020-21 regular season was its best in franchise history in terms of points percentage (.
