NHL roundup: Panthers rally late, top Hurricanes in shootout

Sam Reinhart and Evan Rodrigues scored in the shootout and Sergei Bobrovsky made three stops on four attempts, as the host Florida Panthers rallied to defeat the Carolina Hurricanes 4-3 on Friday night in Sunrise, Fla.

Florida trailed 3-0 with less than 10 minutes left and was down 3-1 with under three minutes remaining. Brad Marchand made it 3-1 with his 20th of the season, Sam Bennett got it to 3-2 and Reinhart tied the game with just 52 seconds remaining. Marchand extended an impressive run with his 13th straight 20-goal season.

Florida's rally ruined a record-breaking attempt by Carolina rookie goalie Brandon Bussi, who had his nine-game win streak snapped despite making a career-high 38 saves. Bussi's streak still ties Cam Ward (2008-2009) for the longest win streak by a Carolina goalie. Bobrovsky made 26 saves for his fifth straight victory.

Sebastian Aho scored twice and Jordan Staal had one for the Hurricanes, who also got two assists each from Seth Jarvis and Andrei Svechnikov and saw their five-game winning streak come to an end.

Avalanche 3, Jets 2

Brent Burns and Martin Necas scored goals in the first period, Parker Kelly had the eventual game-winner and Colorado beat Winnipeg in Denver.

Scott Wedgewood made 20 saves and Josh Manson had two assists for the Avalanche, who have won 12 straight home games, the second-longest streak in franchise history. Colorado is 14-0-2 at home this season and 20-1-4 overall in the past 25 games.

Morgan Barron and Mark Scheifele produced goals and Connor Hellebuyck turned away 23 shots for the Jets, who have lost six of their past seven games (1-5-1) and 12 of the past 15 (3-10-2).

Stars 8, Ducks 3

Oskar Back and Roope Hintz each scored in the opening five minutes of Dallas' four-goal first period and the visiting Stars cruised to a victory over Anaheim.

Sam Steel and Thomas Harley also scored in the opening period as the Stars won their third consecutive game while matching their season high for goals in a game. Jason Robertson delivered two goals and an assist while Adam Erne and Ilya Lyubushkin also scored as Dallas improved to an NHL-best 13-2-4 on the road. Hintz and Harley each added an assist.

Ryan Poehling, Beckett Sennecke and Mikael Granlund each scored goals for the Ducks, who are 9-10-1 since opening the season 11-3-1. Anaheim goalie Lukas Dostal stopped 3 of 7 shots before he was pulled in the first period in favor of Petr Mrazek, who turned aside 14 of 18 shots.

Canucks 4, Islanders 1

Kiefer Sherwood registered his third career hat trick, when Vancouver continued its surge following the Quinn Hughes trade by beating New York in Elmont, N.Y.

The hat trick was the second of the season for Sherwood. David Kampf opened the scoring in the first for the Canucks, who have won three straight -- all on the road -- since dealing Hughes, their captain and leading scorer, to the Minnesota Wild last Saturday. Goalie Thatcher Demko carried a shutout deep into the third and finished with 22 saves.

Anders Lee scored with 5:05 left for the Islanders, who have lost consecutive games for the first time since a three-game skid from Nov. 26-30. Goalie Ilya Sorokin recorded 26 saves.

Devils 2, Mammoth 1

Stefan Noesen scored the go-ahead goal at the 4:20 mark of the third period and Jacob Markstrom made 32 saves as New Jersey completed a sweep of its two-game western road trip with a victory over Utah Mammoth in Salt Lake City.

Connor Brown also scored a goal and Nico Hischier had two assists for New Jersey, which moved into third place in the Metropolitan Division with the win.

Daniil But scored a goal and Karel Vejmelka stopped 20 of 22 shots for Utah, which lost for the second time in three games.
