The Florida Panthers, known as the Comeback Cats, faced a surprising defeat against the Montreal Canadiens. Despite a strong goaltending performance from Sam Montembeault and Daniil Tarasov, the game shifted in the final minutes when Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki scored for Montreal, tying the game and leading to an overtime power play goal by Suzuki. Brad Marchand had previously opened the scoring for Florida, but the late rally by the Canadiens left the Panthers with a frustrating loss as they head into a break before the Winter Classic.
