Aleksander Barkov managed to get the puck over the line, but barely.
The super-skilled Florida Panthers center got the better of Henrik Lundqvist with a nifty shootout move Sunday night, but the New York Rangers goalie was almost able to pull the puck off the line and avoid the loss.
No such luck, however, as after the play was officially reviewed, and the Panthers emerged with the extra point.
