The Detroit Red Wings opened their four-game road trip with a 5-2 win over the defending Stanley Cup champs, thanks to three power play goals Thursday.

Some things just complement each other. For the Florida Panthers, it’s been the line of Anton Lundell, Carter Verhaeghe and Jesper Boqvist. “They draw something out of each other,” said head coach Paul Maurice after Tuesday's 2-1 shootout win over the New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center.

Florida Panthers forward Carter Verhaeghe is finding goals harder to come by this season. He’s currently on track for his lowest goal output in any of his five seasons with the Panthers, though it’s certainly not for a lack of trying.

It’s not fantasy hockey, but the Florida Panthers will again have three of their top players on the same line tonight when they welcome in the Detroit Red Wings. On Tuesday night, coach Paul Maurice put Sasha Barkov with Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Reinhart.

Anton Lundell scored the deciding goal in the fourth round of the shootout to lift the visiting Florida Panthers to a 2-1 win against the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday. Jesper Boqvist scored and Spencer Knight made 25 saves for the Panthers, who snapped a two-game skid (0-1-1).

Winning the Stanley Cup hasn’t been a burden to the Panthers. They’re sitting near the top of the Eastern Conference near the mid-season and having the regular season they wanted.

So Lundell took the onus upon himself to make sure the way he plays on the ice is compatible with whoever his linemates are while not compromising his own performance. It has made him a key part of the Panthers’ core, evidenced by his six-year contract extension this summer.

Carter Verhaeghe, Sam Bennett and Evan Rodrigues are among the Panthers players who are on a lengthy stretch without scoring a goal.
