EDGE Analysis

Connolly deflected Gustav Forsling's point shot to give the Panthers a 3-0 lead in the first period. It was just Connolly's second goal of the season and his first since Feb. 11, ending a stretch of 12 games without finding the back of the net. The second-year Panther has endured a miserable campaign, posting just three points in 19 games after averaging nearly 18 goals over his previous four seasons.
