On Monday night, the Panthers took a 1-0 lead in the first on a goal from Carter Verhaeghe off a sharp pass from Evan Rodrigues.
Tied at 1 in the second, Dmitry Kulikov swept away the puck from an empty net - and Sam Reinhart scored on the ensuing rush.
The rest was up to the Florida defense which clamped down on the Edmonton offensive - with the help of some stellar goaltending from Sergei Bobrovsky.

Going to miss Montour and Lomberg. Good luck to them.
This is what happens with a hard cap. It happened to Tampa over the past 3 years. Nobody is immune to it. You can't keep everyone and little by little your Cup winning team is chipped away
You forgot Stolzar
Sad to see Lomberg go. I'm happy to see him get paid.
@@markravitz1684cats will be fine Zito knows what he’s doing
@@RyanRe-rd6wv Oh yes, Stolie the goalie. Thanx
I was extremely critical of the Tkachuk-Huberdeau trade. So I’m just gonna shut my silly mouth and let Zito cook
@@chootum8295 Zito got that dawg in him, let bro cook
Always been a huge Zito fan. I had concerns about that Huberdeau deal though. I thought his passing made a lot of guys better and it did, but Zito's vision is amazing
I will pretend to understand what Zito is doing… in Zito we trust
😂
Sad that many players leave, but it's just business and Zito has proven to be quite good at what he's doing with his staff.
@@henrikbergman5309 I’m kidding I trust him to lead the franchise in the right direction if you told me last year we could run it back to win the cup with Lomberg-Cousins-Gadjovich with Eky, montour, and Bennett out to begin the year I would have been less than optimistic.
It rips my heart apart that this amazing team is not staying intact 😢
So glad to see Lomberghini get his bag 💰 godspeed you beautiful beauty, you'll always be a Panther
Gonna miss him big time. What a teammate and character. Fan for life.
Killing me that we lost Stenlund and OEL. Thought we could keep both of them for short money. OEL was running point on the PP at end of the season. Stenlund was a fantastic 4th line center and was a beast on the PK.
Frrrr, I said exactly this when I found out
Gonna miss those guys! Unsung heroes!
Stenlund was the player most carried by the team in the playoffs
@@CJMattias umm it was actually okposo and Ekblad, Stenlund was a fantastic player on the PK and controlling the puck
@@CJMattiasyeah dude, you don’t know what you’re talking about. He also scored 11 Goals as a 4th liner, besides being an excellent Pk killer. High Iq player who also was a monster on the boards & forecheck.
Zito is so much of the reason the Panthers have the success they have.
The organization can never lose Bill Zito.
Seems like a really sincere guy
It seems surreal to me that some of our guys are at the parade while completely deals to leave. Other than retiring players, I wish we could have brought them ALL back! I love this team!!!
Please sign Lundell and Tarasenko...
Tarasenko will be too expensive, lundell is a must.
@@bsstyle123Lundell being an RFA makes it easier for the cats to sign. Vlad being local helps but at the same time he did a heck of a job on the Third line. I think they should give him a year for 3 mil.
@@bsstyle123tarasenko this week just bought a brand new $6M house on the water right down the street from the practice facility. He’s not going anywhere, he loves it here. 🐆 🥅
I know Vlad moved on, but I have no doubt the Panthers plan on keeping Anton. Paul has talked far too highly about his potential for them to let him go.
I trust Zito so much that he can sleep with my sister if he wants!
Zito telling him for 5 minutes that the Rhino deal wasnt down to the last minute was painful. Just accept the answer and drop your fake clickbait headline bro.
Zito will get things done. 🐀🏆📈
my beautiful lomberg. God damn it
Sorry that’s business
@@RyanRe-rd6wvpanthers got a cup tho😉
Stop saying God=Lord Jesus Christ's name in vain. He can hold anyone accountable later if anyone keeps doing it.
Man today was bittersweet, we knew the losses were inevitable but I didn't think we would lose the likes of Lomberg and OEL, I really hoped to keep them at the very least, Stenlund stung a bit as well, he was solid all around for us I figured he'd be a lock for a new deal here. The Defense is spread pretty thin at the moment, no way Zito is done and that our D will start as is currently. I still see Ekblad being moved and two additional d men being brought in. I hoped for Sean Walker, Ghost, even Zadorov for the right price but hey we'll see what the magician has up his sleeve.
#InZitoWeTrust
Feel like we could have afforded to pay Lomberg what Calgary paid him to stay. He was the hardest worker out there. He will be missed.
Trust me I hate lomby leaving but Calgary payed him way more than we can afford for a fourth liner
Zito is God!
He must have a plan because today was a little light given what we lost on the D. I guess I don’t know who we have in Charlotte who may be ready to step up. I wonder if Okposo is going to stay now.
Would rather have him go to retirement
What was the first question?
What was the first question
and what was the last 'one more thing' question?
Is Bob or coach gonna retire ? I hope not
From the top of the mountain to the valley in 24 hours. Today hurt. I can't believe we couldn't retain Stenlund and Lomberg for they money they got elsewhere. Seems rather marginal to me. I hope we can keep Tarasenko at least. With players being signed left and right today, whose left to fill such gaping holes?
The core is still together. We're fine. Better than fine.
I agree, it sucks. But I think Nosek at 775K is supposed to replace Stenlund at 2M and Greer at 850K replacing Lomberg at 2M. Those 2 moves saves 2.375M in cap.
I trust Zito, but personally, I’d rather have Stenlund and Lomberg. But maybe that’s because they just won the cup and I’m invested in all the players. What sucks is how the league pushed the date back so far for cup finals, that it feels like FL, the players got robbed (and us) of really enjoying it. Day after parade and numerous players already gone. Doesn’t feel right.
I only have one question…whats up with the pineapple
Symbol of hospitality.
It's for Baptist hosptial who is a big sponsor.
Cocaine is a HELL of a drug!
Earnings after tax is more important than the topline contract value.
mmmmmm - sounds like they are working on a deal to send aaron packing.
Tomorrow it’ll be done
Anger issue zito
Passion Zito
Zen zito
Bill Zito high as a motha fka lmao
What high on water bottles?
