The Florida Panthers brought change to the Eastern Conference wild-card race on Saturday.
The Panthers jumped over the Pittsburgh Penguins for the second wild-card position through a blowout win over the Columbus Blue Jackets and Pittsburgh's home loss to the Boston Bruins.
Florida owns a one-point advantage over Pittsburgh in one of the tightest playoff races in the NHL.
The second wild-card spot in the Western Conference is also a battle with 12 days left in the regular season.
The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames are separated by two points and the Nashville Predators are hanging around three points back of Winnipeg.
