Late goal sinks the Panthers

Ryan Callahan and Nikita Kucherov scored in the third period, leading the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 4-3 victory over the visiting Florida Panthers on Tuesday night.

Callahan skated from behind the net and snapped a shot past Panthers goalie Roberto Luongo from the left circle with 2 minutes, 28 seconds left. Kucherov tied it at 3 with a wraparound for his 27th goal 1 minute, 30 seconds into the third period.

Kings 4, Rangers 2 - Marian Gaborik snapped a second-period tie and Jonathan Quick shook off an opening-minute goal to lift Los Angeles over the New York at Madison Square Garden in a rematch of last year's Stanley Cup Finals.

Cam Talbot's time as the Rangers' starting goalie is running short, with Henrik Lundqvist practicing Tuesday and eyeing a weekend return to the lineup.

The Kings are tied in points with third-place Calgary in the Pacific Division, but the Flames hold the tiebreaker.

Wild 2, Islanders 1 - Zach Parise scored the tying goal midway through the third period, then added another in the shootout to help visiting Minnesota beat New York for its 10th straight road win.

Parise's shootout attempt hit the post to the right of Jaroslav Halak and trickled in after it bounced off the goalie's leg.

Blues 3, Penguins 2 - Alexander Steen redirected Zbynek Michalek's shot from the point into the net 35 seconds into overtime, lifting visiting St. Louis to a win over Pittsburgh.

St. Louis snapped a three-game losing streak. The Blues rallied from a two-goal deficit on scores from former Penguins Robert Bortuzzo and Marcel Goc.

The Blues remained atop the Central Division at the end of a season-long six-game road trip.
