Sergei who?
The Florida Panthers confronted the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday at Lenovo Heart in Raleigh, North Carolina, in a conflict of the previous two Stanley Cup champions. The Hurricanes hoisted the trophy final season, whereas the Panthers gained it the 2 earlier seasons.
Goalie Jacob Markstrom began for the Panthers, changing longtime standout Sergei Bobrovsky (now with the Toronto Maple Leafs). Bobrovsky, a future Hockey Corridor of Famer, starred for the Panthers throughout their Stanley Cup runs, placing much more stress on 17-year veteran Markstrom. But when Tuesday’s contest is an early signal of what is to come back, he’ll be greater than an acceptable alternative.

Markstrom logged a shutout and 15 saves (1.000 save share, stellar) in a 1-0 time beyond regulation victory over Carolina. Panthers defenseman Gustav Forsling scored in time beyond regulation on an help from heart Carter Verhaeghe.
