Three points in Monday's loss Tarasenko picked up a goal and two assists in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Impact Tarasenko was involved in all three of Florida's third-period goals, deflecting a Niko Mikkola shot past Ilya Samsonov to cut the deficit to 5-2 before adding a pair of assists later in the frame. The 32-year-old Tarasenko has three goals and six points in his last five games after going scoreless in his previous five contests. He's up to 22 goals and 51 points across 69 games between Florida and Ottawa this season.

Stops six shots in relief Stolarz stopped all six shots he faced in the third period after relieving Sergei Bobrovsky in a 6-4 loss to Toronto on Monday.
Impact After Bobrovsky allowed five goals through the first two periods, Stolarz held the Leafs off the board while Florida answered with three goals to cut the deficit to 5-4. However, the Panthers' comeback bid would ultimately come up short, as Bobrovsky was stuck with the loss. Overall, Stolarz is 14-6-2 with a .926 save percentage and 1.99 GAA this season. He'll likely be in net Tuesday when the Panthers visit Montreal in the second half of a back-to-back.

Pulled after two periods Bobrovsky allowed five goals on 16 shots before he was relieved by Anthony Stolarz in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Impact Bobrovsky allowed a pair of goals within 33 seconds late in the first period and another three markers in the second before he was replaced by Stolarz to start the third. It's the sixth loss in seven starts for Bobrovsky, who's struggled to an .868 save percentage in that span. The 35-year-old netminder is now 33-17-3 with a .912 save percentage and 2.46 GAA on the season. Stolarz figures to start Tuesday in Montreal in the second leg of a back-to-back, lining up Bobrovsky for a road matchup with the Senators on Thursday.

Starting in Toronto Bobrovsky will guard the road goal Monday against the Maple Leafs, Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network reports.
Impact Bobrovsky is coming off a 20-save performance in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over Detroit. The victory snapped his five-game winless skid. In 53 appearances this season, he has supplied a 33-16-3 record with a 2.40 GAA and a .914 save percentage. Toronto sits third in the league this campaign with 3.62 goals per contest.

Lights lamp twice in win Barkov scored two goals in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Red Wings.
Impact Both goals came in the third period, erasing an early 1-0 deficit and setting the stage for Sam Reinhart to play hero with the only successful shootout attempt. Barkov is up to 21 goals on the season, his ninth straight 20-goal campaign, and Saturday's production also got the 28-year-old to 70 points for the fifth time.

Hangs on for shootout win Bobrovsky turned aside 20 shots in regulation and overtime and all three shootout attempts he faced in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Both pucks that beat Bobrovsky came on Detroit power plays as the veteran netminder snapped an 0-4-1 slump with his 33rd win of the season. Bob's hot streak coming out of the All-Star break has faded, but through 10 starts in March he still posted a solid 2.59 GAA and .904 save percentage. With the Panthers having already clinched a playoff spot but unlikely to catch the Rangers for the top seed in the Eastern Conference, Bobrovsky could get rested a bit more often down the stretch to try and recharge his batteries ahead of the postseason.
