Jagr ties for 2nd in career points, Panthers beat Sabres

Jagr had three assists to pull into a tie for second place on the NHL's career points list, Aleksander Barkov and Vincent Trocheck scored in the shootout, and the Florida Panthers beat the Buffalo Sabres 4-3 on Tuesday night.

Jagr received a long ovation from the fans after tying Messier and acknowledged the crowd.

Roberto Luongo stopped 33 shots, including both attempts in the shootout, to pull into a tie with Terry Sawchuk for fifth all-time in the NHL with 447 wins.

With the score tied at 2, Ristolainen rifled a slap shot from the high slot that got past Luongo with 7:41 left in the third and put the Sabres ahead.

Barkov's initial shot was blocked by Lehner but Barkov grabbed the loose puck at the right side of the crease and poked the puck off Lehner's left skate and across the goal line.

Luongo took a stick to the face from Buffalo's William Carrier that dislodged his mask in the first minute of the third period but stayed in the game after a brief delay.

The Panthers played a video tribute to Kulikov midway through the second period. ...
