The Florida Panthers -- off to the best seven-game start in franchise history -- defeated the visiting Boston Bruins 4-1 on Wednesday night in Sunrise, Fla.
Florida (7-0-0) got one goal each from Mason Marchment, Eetu Luostarinen, Anthony Duclair and Owen Tippett (empty net). The Panthers also benefited from Sergei Bobrovsky's 30 saves, three assists from Gustav Forsling and two assists from Sam Reinhart.
The Panthers are just the 14th NHL team to start a season 7-0-0.
The Panthers have at least four goals in every game this season, and Bobrovsky has started with five straight wins for the first time in his career.
Maple Leafs 3, Blackhawks 2 (OT)
William Nylander's breakaway goal in overtime gave Toronto a comeback win over host Chicago.
Down 2-0 through the first 26 minutes, Toronto got on the board on a second-period score from John Tavares, then equalized on David Kampf's goal at 12:31 of the third period. That set the stage for Nylander's third goal of the season.
The overtime loss added to the early-season woes for the Blackhawks, who are off to an 0-5-2 start. Kirby Dach and Alex DeBrincat produced first-period goals to give Chicago the early lead, with Seth Jones assisting on both scores.

Alex Ovechkin scored his eighth goal of the season for Washington.
Golden Knights 3, Stars 2 (OT)
