The Panthers won just two of 23 games they played when they trailed through two periods this regular season, tied with the Winnipeg Jets, Chicago Blackhawks and San Jose Sharks for the second-fewest comeback wins in the league. Only the New Jersey Devils, with one win in 27 tries when trailing after 40 minutes, had fewer such wins.

Game 4 between the Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning produced one of the wildest sequences of the Stanley Cup Playoffs through Monday and an all-time record. The game started slowly, with a scoreless first period and the Panthers' Anton Lundell opening the scoring nine minutes into the second period.
