Panthers Surge Ahead In Stanley Cup Revenge Game

When the fight occurred the game was still deadlocked at zero. Shortly after the Golden Knights would take a lead thanks to Mark Stone. Florida would respond with two goals and take a 2-1 lead. Young forward Pavel Dorofeyev stepped up and tied the game back up at 2.

Then in a turning point of the game, the Panthers would score two goals in just over 2 minutes. Panthers forward Sam Reinhart continued his torrid start to the season with his 19th goal of the season. Carter Verhaeghe also added a goal and the Panthers now find themselves up by 2 halfway through the third period.

The Panthers look like they are on their way to a small piece of revenge partly thanks to a big fight win from Ryan Lomberg.
