Florida Panthers at Edmonton Oilers
· National Hockey League
4 - 0
Sergei Bobrovsky perfect in net as Panthers blank Oilers 4-0
Cole Reinhardt, A.J. Greer, Anton Lundell and Carter Verhaeghe scored for the injury-riddled Panthers, who snapped a two-game losing skid.
Sam Bennett, Evan Rodrigues and Mike Benning all had two assist games. The Panthers are almost certain to miss the playoffs and a chance to defend their back-to-back titles.
Connor Ingram made 19 stops in the loss for Edmonton.
The Oilers had a two-game winning streak halted and missed out on an opportunity to move ahead of idle Anaheim into first in the Pacific Division.
Edmonton remained without star Leon Draisaitl, out for the rest of the regular season with a lower-body injury.
Florida has been hit hard by injuries all season. Among those out of the lineup on Thursday were Aleksander Barkov, Sam Reinhart and Brad Marchand. Only defenseman Gustav Forsling has managed to appear in all 68 games this season. Conversely, six Oilers have played in every game: Connor McDavid, Matt Savoie, Vasily Podkolzin, Evan Bouchard, Mattias Ekholm and Darnell Nurse.
Oilers: Host the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday.
