Panthers' Jonathan Marchessault: Scores in Florida debut

Marchessault tallied the Panthers' lone regulation goal in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over New Jersey.

Analysis:

He skated heavy minutes -- 19:32 -- and performed as he always has at the AHL level, which is to say impressively. Marchessault's NHL record is more of a mixed bag, as the 25-year-old still owns just 21 points in 50 career games, but his prime spot on the Panthers' top line and second power-play unit has him in good position to bust out this year.
