After Lightning goalie Mike Smith foiled Stephen Weiss to open the fourth round, Malone stuck a forehander to the stick side on Florida netminder Craig Anderson.

Steve Eminger netted a goal and two assists for the Lightning, who have won two in a row, both on the road. Mark Recchi and Evgeni Artyukhin also tallied while Smith came up with 25 saves.

Starter Tomas Vokoun allowed three goals on 27 shots through two periods. Anderson stopped all eight shots he faced in the third period and overtime.

Vokoun surrendered a bad goal with 8:36 remaining in the first period, allowing Eminger's knuckling shot from the blueline slip up his pads and in.

Ballard countered for Florida with just over 90 seconds left in the first on a floater from the left point, and saved a potential go-ahead goal right before the buzzer, sweeping out Malone's shot with his stick before the puck fully crossed the goal line.

Tampa then assumed a two-goal lead late in the second on Recchi's eighth of the season at 16:53 and on Artyukhin's backhander at 18:27.

Florida rallied to tie the game on a pair of late scores.

Stillman cut the Panthers deficit to 3-2 with a power-play score at 13:37, taking the loose rebound of Jay Bouwmeester's shot and lifting it over a fallen Smith.

McCabe then rifled home a shot from the point with 13.9 seconds left in regulation as Anderson was on the bench for an extra attacker.
