SUNRISE, Fla. -- Aaron Ekblad and Seth Jones scored within a span of 11 seconds late in the third period, and the Florida Panthers defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference First Round at Amerant Bank Arena on Monday.

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.
