SUNRISE, FLORIDA — The Florida Panthers beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-2 on Friday at Amerant Bank Arena, with Anton Lundell scoring a hat trick to hand Winnipeg its eighth straight loss, according to NHL.com.
Lundell entered with one goal in 13 games. "It has been one of those hard stretches," he said of his scoring drought. He put Florida up 2-0 early in the second period, poked in a rebound for a 4-2 lead at 13:33 of the third and finished his first NHL hat trick, in his 372nd game, with an empty-net goal. Seth Jones had a goal and two assists, and Sam Reinhart had a goal and an assist. Akira Schmid made 22 saves.
Florida is 8-4-2. Winnipeg, 4-7-3, is 0-6-2 in its last eight and started goaltender Nico Daws for the first time since the trade that sent Connor Hellebuyck to New Jersey.
