Aleksander Barkov scored twice in the second period, Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 28 shots, and the Florida Panthers beat their in-state rival Tampa Bay Lightning 2-1 on Monday night.
Thanks to the Panthers giving Tampa Bay and their top-ranked road power play a whopping seven opportunities on the man advantage, Jones was called into action to help kill off a lot of that PK time. He ended up playing over four minutes while Florida was shorthanded, helping the Cats go a perfect 7-for-7 on the penalty kill.
The Panthers placed Tkachuk on long-term injured reserve on Sunday in order to recall goaltender Chris Driedger. The move takes his $9.5 million cap hit off the books as long as he is on LTIR. He must stay there for a minimum of 10 games and 24 days. Monday will mark his fifth game missed.
