The Jets had limited scoring chances, their first not coming until Kyle Connor's partial breakaway just under two minutes into the second period.

Adam Lowry's shorthanded tally 12:27 into the second where he scored on a wraparound and play was allowed to continue until off-ice officials blew the horn on the clock and referees verified it via video review, was the only offence the Jets could muster.

The lead was short lived, as Sam Reinhart restored Florida's three goal cushion 47 seconds later, snapping a neat relayed feed from Brady Tkachuk to make it 4-1.

The goal was his 6th of the season.

Brady Tkachuk converted a saucer pass from his brother Matthew at 12:10, using one hand on his stick to beat Stevenson high glove side to make it 5-1 Panthers.

The goal was his 8th of the season.
