Trailing 1-0 just past the midway point of the third period, Mike Hoffman jumpstarted Florida's comeback with a power play goal that tied the game 1-1 at 13:16. Then, with time running out in regulation, Jonathan Huberdeau finished off a nifty passing sequence to make it 2-1 at 18:54.
The goal was Huberdeau's second game-winner of the season.
"It shows a lot about our team," Huberdeau said of the victory. "Last night was a tough game… We didn't get the start we wanted, but I think we stuck with it. We had so many chances that wouldn't go in, but at the end it worked out for us. It's a big two points, but it's not enough to win just one game. We've got to start climbing and get some other wins, too."
In the end, Florida finished with a 42-24 advantage in scoring chances over the Flyers.
"Me and Barky [Aleksander Barkov] were talking to each other, saying there was no way nothing was going to happen," said Huberdeau, who finished with three shots on goal. "We had so many chances. Then it finally happened at the end. We just stuck with it, and it worked out for us."
With the win, the Panthers responded for the fourth time this month after a tough loss - an important quality you'll find in any good hockey team. They have yet to lose consecutive games since Dec. 11-13, climbing back above .500 and within seven points of a playoff spot at 16-15-6.
"It was a big relief," Panthers coach Bob Boughner said. "We talked this morning about having a response from last night. I thought we did that. I thought we came out, even though we were down 1-0, we played the same way through the whole game. We didn't gamble for our goals. We just kept in our structure. It was a good way to win. A good way to win, 2-1."
