Panthers' Aleksander Barkov: Carries team to OT win in opener
Barkov scored the game-winner in overtime and assisted on Florida's other goal in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Devils.
Analysis:
The offseason changed nothing -- Barkov is one of the game's rising stars, and if he can stay clear of the injury bug this season, it wouldn't be a surprise to see the 21-year-old challenge 80 points. He's that good.
