Panthers grab slim edge in very wild East wild-card race
Alex Lyon’s goaltending resume is no jokeAPRIL 5, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Excellent in victory Lyon stopped 39 of 40 shots, leading the Panthers to a 2-1 victory over the Sabres on Tuesday.
Impact The third star of the game, Lyon was sensational, allowing just one goal to Dylan Cozens in the first period. With Sergei Bobrovsky out for the fourth straight game with an illness, Lyon picked up his fourth straight victory, allowing just five goals in that stretch. As Florida is in the middle of a tight playoff push, Lyon could hold onto the starting gig even when Sergei Bobrovsky returns.

Matthew Tkachuk snapped a tie in the opening minute of the third period, and the Florida Panthers topped the Buffalo Sabres 2-1 for their fourth consecutive victoryAPRIL 5, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Starting Tuesday Lyon will patrol the home crease Tuesday against Buffalo, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
Impact Lyon will make his fourth consecutive start after stopping 77 of 81 shots during a three-game win streak. He has a 6-3-1 record this season with a 3.24 GAA and an .899 save percentage in 10 appearances. The Sabres rank third in the league this campaign with 3.59 goals per game.

Blanks Blue Jackets Lyon stopped all 21 shots he faced in Saturday's 7-0 win over Columbus.
Impact The game was never in doubt, as Florida scored multiple goals in each period, but Lyon did have his busiest period in the third as the Blue Jackets tried in vain to spoil his first career NHL shutout. The 30-year-old has won three straight starts while Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) has been sidelined, and the surge has carried the Panthers into the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference -- although two of those wins have come against teams in the bottom five in the league in the Jackets and Canadiens.

Going back-to-back Lyon will guard the road goal Thursday versus the Canadiens, Katie Engleson of Bally Sports Florida reports.
Impact Lyon will play back-to-back nights with Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) not feeling well enough to play. The 30-year-old Lyon impressed Wednesday with 38 saves on 40 shots to earn the win, his fourth in eight outings at the NHL level this season.
MARCH 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Earns second straight win Lyon stopped 18 of 20 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over Montreal.
Impact Lyon got his second win in as many days with Sergei Bobrovsky (illness) unavailable. The 30-year-old Lyon allowed a goal to Sean Farrell in the first period before Rafael Harvey-Pinard added a power-play marker in the third en route to an eventual 5-2 victory. Lyon improves to 5-3-1 with an .888 save percentage this season.

Montour scores in OT, Panthers beat Maple Leafs to snap skid
Brandon Montour scored 1:41 into overtime and the Florida Panthers rallied to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-2, snapping a four-game skidMARCH 30, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Steps up in crucial win Lyon made 38 saves in Wednesdays' 3-2 overtime win over the Maple Leafs.
Impact With Sergei Bobrovsky having lost three consecutive starts in regulation while allowing four-plus goals in each, the Panthers turned to Lyon and were rewarded for the move with his best start of the season. Lyon tied his season best with two goals allowed, despite facing Toronto's top-10 offense. Florida moved within one point of the Penguins for the final playoff spot in the East, and the team will likely opt to ride the hot hand between Lyon and Bobrovsky down the stretch.

Starting in Toronto Lyon will guard the road goal Wednesday against the Maple Leafs, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
Impact Lyon will make his eighth appearance this season, having allowed 28 goals on 226 shots through his first seven outings. It's not a particularly favorable start for him Wednesday, as the Maple Leafs have averaged 3.42 goals per game.

Rough night in Philly Lyon turned aside 18 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.
Impact Philadelphia's final goal was scored into an empty net. The second period was especially tough for Lyon as he made his first NHL start since late January, as he gave up four goals on only 11 shots during the frame. It's looking increasingly unlikely that Spencer Knight (personal) will play again this season, but with the Panthers fighting to stay in the playoff picture, Lyon isn't likely to see much work behind Sergei Bobrovsky -- Florida has only one more back-to-back set left on its schedule, March 29-30 in Toronto and Montreal.
