The Florida Panthers are about to make their second NHL appearance in the Stanley Cup finals.
The Florida Panthers are about to make their second NHL appearance in the Stanley Cup finals. Head coach Paul Maurice’s team also won the third game of the best-of-seven series against the Carolina Hurricanes by just one goal in the semifinals of the North American professional hockey league. After 60 minutes it was 1-0 in front of the home crowd.
The goal of the day for the Panthers, who reached the final for the first and only time in 1996, came from Canada’s Sam Reinhart in the second period. The second match-winner for the Florida team was goalie Sergei Bobrowski, the keeper saved all 32 shots that came at his goal.
The Panthers thus have three match points, the possibly decisive fourth game in Florida is scheduled for Thursday night (2 a.m. / Sky) according to German time. In the west, the Vegas Golden Knights lead 2-0 against the Dallas Stars.
