Lundell tied the score at 1-1 at 6:37 of the first, ramming the puck over Swayman’s pads and onto the goal line after intercepting Lohrei’s pass behind the net.

“I feel like we’ve probably played Boston the most the last two, three seasons,” Lundell said. “So we know each other very well and it’s always good fights. I like good fights, we like good fights, so it always brings some tension during the matches, but then we want to be at our best.”

Reinhart gave the Panthers a 2-1 lead at 11:51 with a power-play goal, beating Swayman stick-side from the faceoff.

“(If) you had Tkachuk on the wall or Barkov in the hole, they’re going to do everything they can to get you out clean, but then we stayed and fought and fought,” Panthers coach Paul Maurice said. “They haven’t gotten into too many problems, but they’re getting their chances. But I thought the match was going well.

Brandon Carlo tied the score at 2-2 at 5:08 of the second period with a wrist shot from behind the right circle.
