SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Radim Vrbata scored with a minute left in the third period to force overtime, then added the winner in the third round of a shootout in the Phoenix Coyotes' 4-3 comeback victory over the Florida Panthers on Thursday night.
Martin Hanzal and Lee Stempniak also scored in the third period to help the Coyotes stretch their winning streak to seven games. The Coyotes also set a franchise record for wins in a season, besting the previous mark set by the 1984-85 Winnipeg Jets — before overtime ties were broken in shootouts.
Ilya Bryzgalov stopped 21 shots in regulation and overtime for Phoenix.
David Booth and Cory Stillman each scored second-period goals for Florida, and Stephen Weiss had a power-play goal in the first. Tomas Vokoun made 43 saves.
