Brad Marchand netted his first goal of the season 2:19 into the third period on Thursday night as Florida topped the Philadelphia Flyers 2-1. After a scoreless first period, Anton Lundell converted on the power play at 5:29 of the second before the Flyers tied the game with 2:12 left in the period. Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 19 shots in the win as the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions navigate the early part of the season without winger Matthew Tkachuk, recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, while captain Alexander Barkov likely won’t play until the spring after tearing his ACL and MCL in a training-camp practice last month.
The Senators, who snapped a seven-year playoff drought last season, came back from an early 3-1 deficit, taking the lead on Shane Pinto’s second goal of the night with 1:47 left in a 5-4 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday night. Captain Brady Tkachuk finished with three assists and Pinto also had a three-point night, while Dylan Cozens, Artem Zub and Claude Giroux also scored in the win.
This is a great NHL matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
