Richard Zednik is Awesome.

That is all.

I don't think it could have gone any better tonight for Richard Zednik. One year to the day from suffering that terrible injury in Buffalo, the Panthers' winger capped off a late rally against Toronto both to tie the game at 4, and then to win it in overtime.

Florida trailed 4-1 with less than twelve minutes to play, but goals from Nathan Horton, Ville Peltonen and Richard Zednik within seven minutes had erased the deficit and, in a repeat of last week's 3-1 come-from-behind win against Toronto in Toronto, the Panthers put it away with the extra time.

Florida is back in eighth, a point ahead of Carolina. The Canes host the Cats on Thursday, so the Panthers have a chance to put a little distance between them with a strong performance.
