SUNRISE, Fla. — The nightmare scenario for any postseason favorite — and the Florida Panthers will be one next month — is to run into the hot goaltender once the Stanley Cup playoffs begin.
The Panthers got a taste of what it might look like Tuesday when they ran into John Gibson and still they survived to beat the Anaheim Ducks, 3-2, in overtime.
When an offense is soaring like Florida’s has this year, even a spectacular goalie isn’t enough enough to totally derail a game.
