Aleksander Barkov and Carter Verhaeghe had power-play goals, Sam Reinhart had a short-handed score and the Florida Panthers beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-1 on Wednesday night for only their second win in eight games.

SUNRISE, Fla. -- Carter Verhaeghe had a goal and two assists, and the Florida Panthers ended a four-game losing streak with a 5-1 win against the Toronto Maple Leafs at Amerant Bank Arena on Wednesday.

Between defensive lapses, miscommunications and outright turnovers, it’s been more difficult lately for the Panthers to both keep the puck out of their own net and exit their end of the ice with any consistency fluidity.

The last time these two teams met, the Maple Leafs fell 3-1 to the Panthers in Florida, with Marner scoring the lone goal for Toronto.

With the Maple Leafs coming to town, there will also be three familiar faces in the building as Steven Lorentz, Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Anthony Stolarz take the ice at Amerant Bank Arena for the first time since helping the Panthers capture the Stanley Cup back in June.
