Nov 8, 2023 | 8:57 PM

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sam Reinhart scored 15 seconds into overtime and the defending Eastern Conference champion Florida Panthers rallied to beat the Washington Capitals 4-3 on Wednesday night.

The Panthers, winners of two in a row and three of their last four, entered the third period trailing 3-2 until Evan Rodrigues tied it early in the period.

Defenceman Oliver Ekman-Larsson and captain Aleksander Barkov also scored for the Panthers. Two-time Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky made 25 saves.

The Capitals ended their five-game homestand on a losing note despite two goals from Anthony Mantha, one short-handed score from Connor McMichael and two assists from Aliaksei Protas. Darcy Kuemper allowed four goals on 25 shots.

Alex Ovechkin remains stuck on two goals, matching his lowest total through 11 games (2008-09) and slowing down his pursuit of Wayne Gretzky’s career record.
