The Florida Panthers will welcome the Chicago Blackhawks to FLA Live Arena for an NHL game on Thursday. The Florida Panthers won 2-1 in their last game over the Knights. Sergei Bobrovsky made 31 saves for the Florida Panthers in a 2-1 win against the Vegas Golden Knights at FLA Live Arena on Tuesday.
Bobrovsky preserved a one-goal lead with 10 saves in the third period. “It is huge to have a goalie like that, playing at a level like that,” Florida captain Aleksander Barkov said. “It is amazing, and we are really confident playing in front of him.” Barkov and Ryan Lomberg scored for the Panthers (32-27-6), who won their second game in a row to end a stretch of 11 games alternating wins and losses.
Florida is three points behind the Pittsburgh Penguins for the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Eastern Conference. “Every game is huge for us, and we want to win them all,” Barkov said. “We’re playing one period at a time, that’s what we are doing here. I think we could have played better, especially in that second [period], but [Bobrovsky] was excellent in the game, as always, and kept us in it.”
The Chicago Blackhawks on the other hand lost 4-3 against the Red Wings in their last game. Taylor Raddysh scored twice and Joey Anderson also scored for Chicago. Alex Stalock stopped 15 shots. “I thought that was a really sloppy game for us right from the start, other than our goaltender,” Blackhawks coach Luke Richardson said.
Raddysh scored his first goal of the game on a power play off a pass from Lukas Reichel. Raddysh’s 16th goal of the season came after Detroit turned the puck over in its own zone. He took a shot from the right circle that beat Husso on the short side. Cole Guttman recorded his first career assist on the play.
Larkin was awarded a penalty shot in the final minute of the period when Blackhawks defenseman Caleb Jones covered the puck in the crease. Larkin tried to beat Stalock with a low shot, but Stalock made a pad save. Walman scored his seventh goal early in the second to cut Chicago’s lead to 2-1. Walman’s shot from the point deflected off a defender’s stick and over Stalock’s left shoulder.
