Panthers defeat Hurricanes in OT

Kris Versteeg scored 3 minutes, 8 seconds into overtime, giving the host Florida Panthers a 3-2 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday night.

Stephen Weiss' shot from in front was blocked, but Versteeg found the loose puck and swept it in for his team-leading 16th goal of the season.
