The Florida Panthers won against Tampa on their home ice with a score of 6-1, winning the series 4-1. They are the first team to advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals. In the second match of last night’s program, the Dallas Stars tied the series against the Vegas Golden Knights at 2-2 and ended up winning 4-2.

The Panthers broke the tie in the third period, after a hard-fought game in the first two periods, with a goal advantage. During the third period, the Panthers’ offensive play improved immensely, thanks to the efforts of Barkov and Verhaeghe, who each scored two goals and provided two assists. Bobrovsky also played exceptionally well in goal, making 31 saves and offering excellent support to his teammates. In the next round, the Panthers will face the winner of the Boston-Toronto matchup.

The Stars over the Knights

On the other side, in the Western Conference, Dallas managed to equal the score (2-2) in the fourth game and win 4-2. Vegas took the lead through Amdio, before the end of the first period, but Dadonov equalized. Vegas then had the advantage again, with Eichel scoring, but the visitors followed with goals from Johnston, Delandrea, and Hints for a complete turnaround. The fifth game is scheduled for Thursday.
