Jack Finley's first NHL goal was the game-winner as the Tampa Bay Lightning rebounded from a blowout loss two days prior with a 3-1 win over the rival Florida Panthers on Saturday in Sunrise, Fla.

Early in the third period, Florida defenseman Donovan Sebrango fell down, allowing the 23-year-old Finley to skate in alone and backhand in his first tally in seven career games past Sergei Bobrovsky (17 saves) for a 2-1 edge at the 4:09 mark.

Emil Lilleberg and Zemgus Girgensons scored goals for Tampa Bay, which is 8-2-0 in its past 10 matches. Goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy made 23 saves.
