Watch: Vanek wires in 1st as a Panther

Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports

A change of address isn't about to stall Thomas Vanek's resurgent offensive campaign.

Fresh off a trade deadline deal that sent the veteran winger from the Detroit Red Wings to the Florida Panthers, Vanek got on the board during his club's Tuesday night tilt with the New York Rangers, cutting into the slot and snapping in his first goal with his new club.

The tally was Vanek's 16th of the year, and his 39th point overall. By netting his first goal for Florida, Vanek has now scored for six different teams in the past four seasons.
