from George Richards of Florida Hockey Now,

The Florida Panthers certainly lived up to their ‘Comeback Cats’ moniker in their previous outing, but who could have guessed they would do it again on Wednesday night?

With less than four minutes gone in the second period, the Panthers found themselves down three.

A rollicking FLA Live Arena had gone silent. Accept for the fellow in the upper deck who shouted: ‘Do something, Panthers!’

Well, Sir, the Panthers heard you.

Loud and clear.

At least Carter Verhaeghe did.

Another Florida comeback started not long after the sarcastic pleading came down from on high, the Panthers scoring three of their own to close the second period.

In the third, Florida got a second Verhaeghe goal and pulled out a 5-3 win over the Washington Capitals in Game 5 of their first-round series.
