In a remarkable display of dominance, the Florida Panthers set a new franchise record by scoring nine consecutive goals against Tampa Bay Lightning, concluding with a staggering 9-1 victory.

This game saw the Lightning allowing the most goals in a single game this season, surpassing an 8-1 loss to Dallas on December 2. The Panthers' performance was highlighted by Carter Verhaeghe's achievement and Sam Bennett's power play goal, demonstrating their prowess and setting a new benchmark for consecutive goals in their franchise history.
