"A late penalty on Niko Mikkola loomed large in the Florida Panthers costly 5-4 loss to the St. Louis Blues at Enterprise Center. Mikkola's drive by of goaltender Joel Hofer with 1:54 left in the game put the Blues on a power play that they cashed in on with nine seconds remaining on the clock when Jimmy Snuggerud whipped Pavel Buchnevich's circle-to-circle crossing pass past Daniil Tarasov. The second assist went to Jordan Kyrou, who was named First Star for his one-goal, two-assist performance."
"St. Louis swould score twice within 3:05 span to forge ahead. The first goal was a breakaway marker by Jake Neighbours, who was sprung by Buchnevich and decided to forego making any moves and simply beat Tarasov with a wrister from the high slot, with the second assist going to Kyrou, at the 4:46 mark. Kyrou would get a goal of his own at 7:51 after Philip Broberg picked off a Carter Verhaeghe's ill-fated stretch pass."
