In an impressive display at Mullett Arena, the Florida Panthers demonstrated their dominance on the ice against the Arizona Coyotes. The Panthers' offense was relentless throughout the game, firing off 38 shots and successfully finding the back of the net four times. Their shooting accuracy was noteworthy as they maintained a solid shooting percentage of ten percent.


The first period saw an early lead for the Panthers with one goal setting them ahead. However, it was during the third period that they truly took control of the game by adding three more goals to their tally. One such goal came from their effective powerplay unit which capitalized on one out of five opportunities and contributed significantly to their total points.


Defensively, Florida's performance was equally strong; they blocked eight shots and delivered thirty-one hits to maintain pressure on Arizona throughout all three periods. Their faceoff win percentage stood out at sixty-six percent overall – winning thirty-eight out of fifty-eight faceoffs – which helped them maintain possession and control over much of the gameplay.


On special teams, aside from scoring once on powerplay opportunities, they also held firm while shorthanded by not allowing any goals despite two shots taken by Arizona during these moments.


The goaltending for Florida proved to be nearly impenetrable as well; saving twenty-one out of twenty-two shots for an impeccable save percentage that contributed greatly to keeping Arizona's scoring efforts minimized.


Conversely, while facing tough opposition from Florida's robust defense and aggressive offensive plays, Arizona managed only one goal despite taking twenty-two shots throughout all periods combined. They struggled in faceoffs too with just thirty-four percent success rate but did manage to score shorthanded once which accounted for their lone point in this encounter.
