Impact Reinhart accounted for all the offense the Panthers mustered in this 5-1 defeat thanks to a power-play goal in the third period.

Sergei Bobrovsky - Beaten four times in Winter Classic Bobrovsky stopped 15 of 19 shots in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact The star goaltender was unable to deliver a strong showing in this highly anticipated matchup, and the four goals he allowed were the most since he conceded six in a loss to the Blue Jackets on Dec. 6. The lack of consistency has been an issue for Bobrovsky of late, as he's gone 2-2-0 in his last four games while posting a subpar .865 save percentage in that stretch.
