Florida Panthers before the quarter -finals: victory over Tampa Bay 4: 2!

In an exciting fourth game of the Eastern Conference First Round, the Florida Panthers defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 and now lead 3: 1 in the best-of-Seven series. This brings the Panthers one step closer to the quarter -finals because they will have a first match ball on Wednesday. The game started uneventful with a goalless first third, but in the 30th minute Anton Lundell scored the first goal for Florida.

However, the lead did not last long, because only three minutes later the Lightning countered by hits from Mitchell Chaffee and Erik Cernak, who at times turned the game. With increasing time, however, it became critical of Tampa Bay: Florida in the 57th minute when Aaron Ekblad scored a goal, followed by Seth Jones only eleven seconds later, who brought the Panthers 3-2. Carter Verhaeghe made the end of the end with an Empty-Net goal in the 59th minute.

Despite an interim leadership, the Lightning were unable to assert control over the game. Coach Jon Cooper expressed that the series was very tight and that the level of competition of both teams remains high. Tampa Bay had a five -minute majority in the encounter, but could not benefit and only scored a shot on the goal during this phase. In PowerPlay statistics, the Lightning with just one goal from 15 tests are in deficit and have to improve their performance in overpayment situations, as Chaffee emphasized.

In the Western Conference, the Dallas Stars prove that they are also on the road to success. With an impressive 6-2 victory against the Colorado Avalanche, the stars now run 3-2 in their series. After only nine seconds, Wyatt Johnston scored the five-fastest goal in playoff history. Further goals for Dallas scored Thomas Harley, Mikko Rantanten, Johnston in Powerplay and Marchment, while the avalanche could go out through Lehkonen and Mackinnon. The next game will take place on Thursday, where Colorado has to win to force a decision -making game.

The Florida Panthers, which are reinforced by Nico Sturm, are about to come to the quarter -finals. However, Sturm played only 6:45 minutes in this game and continued to wait for his first scorer point in these playoffs. Jonathan Jones recalled that the series was not over and both teams have to continue to fight hard.

The first two series seem to be in full swing, and the NHL fans can look forward to exciting and decisive matches in the coming days.
