BUFFALO, N.Y. — Anthony Stolarz stopped 45 shots for his seventh career shutout and the Florida Panthers became the 11th NHL team to win 10 consecutive road games, beating the Buffalo Sabres 4-0 on Thursday night. Carter Verhaeghe opened the scoring midway through the first period and added an empty-netter. Anton Lundell scored by tipping in Matthew Tkachuk's point shot on a delayed penalty with 2:44 left in the second period. Ryan Lomberg followed Verhaeghe's empty-netter with a goal with 11 seconds remaining. Florida extended its franchise-record road winning with the run that is tied for the sixth-longest among NHL teams, and two short of matching the record held by Detroit (2005-06) and Minnesota (2014-15). The Panthers won on consecutive nights, following a 5-2 victory at Pittsburgh.
