In goal for Game 3 Lyon will protect the home goal during Friday's Game 3 versus Boston, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

Impact Lyon was solid in Wednesday's Game 2, turning aside 34 of 37 shots en route to a convincing 6-3 victory. The American netminder will try to secure a second straight win at home Friday in a matchup with a Bruins team that looks like it may be without captain Patrice Bergeron (upper body) for a third straight contest.

Tending twine for Game 2 Lyon will defend the road cage in Game 2 against the Bruins on Wednesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Despite suffering a third straight defeat, Lyon will make his 10th consecutive appearance in goal for the Cats. If Lyon were to suffer another loss to the Bruins, coach Paul Maurice may be forced to finally give Sergei Bobrovsky a start. In the meantime, Lyon seems to have earned the trust of the coaching staff and will look to hold onto his spot in the crease.

Makes 34 saves in victory Lyon stopped 34 of 37 shots in a 6-3 win over Boston in Game 2 on Wednesday.

Impact Lyon surrendered two goals on 17 shots in the second period and allowed another marker in the third, but he got plenty of offensive support. He snapped a three-game losing streak, during which he stopped just 79 of 88 shots. Lyon's made 10 consecutive appearances and will likely start Friday given that he was on the winning end in Game 2.

Exits ice first ahead of Game 1 Lyon was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports, indicating he'll be between the road pipes for Game 1 against the Bruins.

Impact Lyon will be making his ninth consecutive appearance in the crease for the Panthers, having supplanted Sergei Bobrovsky as the preferred option in the crease. In those prior eight outings, the 30-year-old Lyon went 6-1-1 with a 1.87 GAA, .943 save percentage and one shutout. While Lyon gets the first look, his hold on the starting gig should probably be considered tenuous at best with Bobrovsky waiting in the wings.

Falls in Game 1 Lyon allowed three goals on 29 shots in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins.

Impact Lyon allowed a power-play goal to David Pastrnak in the first period and a pair of tallies in the second as the Panthers dropped the series opener 3-1. Lyon surprisingly took over the starting job from Sergei Bobrovsky late in the season, going 6-1-1 with a .943 save percentage over his final eight starts. The 30-year-old Lyon will likely get the start again Wednesday in Game 2 as the Panthers look to even the series.

Stumbles to finish line Lyon stopped 30 of 34 shots in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact The game had a wild finish -- with Lyon pulled for an extra attacker with over three minutes left in the third period, Carolina scored one empty-net goal only for Florida to answer back with two tallies of their own, before Sebastian Aho put the contest out of reach with a second empty-netter. The loss left the Panthers with the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference, and a first-round matchup with the juggernaut Bruins. Lyon still performed admirably in place of Sergei Bobrovsky while making eight straight starts to close out the schedule, going 6-1-1 with a 1.87 GAA and .943 save percentage. Look for Bobrovsky to be between the pipes when the playoffs begin, however.

Facing Hurricanes Lyon will get the home start versus Carolina on Thursday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

Impact Lyon has been red-hot of late, going 6-0-1 while stopping 226 of 237 shots. He has taken over as the Panthers' No. 1 goaltender from Sergei Bobrovsky as this will be his eighth straight start in goal. Lyon is 9-3-2 with a 2.80 GAA and .914 save percentage this season. He will take on the Hurricanes, who need a win to clinch the top spot in the Metropolitan Division standings.

Falls to Leafs in OT Lyon stopped 23 shots in Monday's 2-1 overtime loss to Toronto.

Impact The Panthers out-shot the Maple Leafs 46-25 on the night, but Ilya Samsonov was the difference in the game, although Lyon had little chance on either puck that beat him -- one deflected home by Auston Matthews, the other coming in OT on a John Tavares breakaway. Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) has been suiting up as Lyon's backup the last two games, but Florida's had the luxury of waiting until its No. 1 netminder is 100 percent before using him again, as Lyon has gone 6-0-1 with a 1.55 GAA and .952 save percentage while starting the last seven contests.

Facing Toronto Lyon will defend the home net Monday against Toronto, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Lyon has won his past six outings, having stopped 194 of 203 shots. That includes a 38-save performance in a 3-2 overtime win over the Maple Leafs on March 29. The 30-year-old netminder has a 9-3-1 record this season with a 2.88 GAA and a .916 save percentage. Toronto is tied for seventh in the league this campaign with 3.41 goals per game.

Season-high sixth straight win Lyon made 22 saves in a 4-2 win over Washington on Saturday.

Impact The game was tied 2-2 until the 19-minute mark of the third period, when Matthew Tkachuk scored to deliver the win. Lyon has won a season-high six straight games to help the Panthers keep pace in the Eastern Conference wild card race. The Islanders won 4-0 against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday, and the Penguins defeated the Detroit Red Wings 5-1.

Starting Saturday Lyon will be in the visiting crease versus Washington on Saturday, George Richards of FloridaHockeyNow.com reports.

Impact Lyon was sensational Thursday, setting a franchise record, as he turned aside 56 shots in a 7-2 win over Ottawa. It was his fifth straight win, giving him an 8-3-1 record with a 2.95 GAA and .914 save percentage. He will take on the Capitals, who are 20th in NHL scoring, averaging 3.08 goals per game.

Lyon has won five straight games with a stellar 1.40 GAA and .961 save percentage while Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) has been sidelined, and his work between the pipes has kept Florida in a wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, just one point ahead of the Penguins.
