Pavel Mintyukov played a crucial role in the Anaheim Ducks' 5-4 overtime victory against Utah, scoring the final two goals in regulation and demonstrating strong defensive capabilities with three blocked shots. Meanwhile, Anton Lundell has been a standout player for the Florida Panthers, scoring two goals in a 4-3 win over the Boston Bruins, and contributing significantly while Aleksander Barkov is sidelined.

Despite missing Matthew Tkachuk, the Panthers broke a losing streak with Lundell and Sam Reinhart each netting two goals against the Bruins. Florida's goalie, Sergei Bobrovsky, contributed with key saves against Boston, securing the win. These performances highlight the impact of young players like Mintyukov and Lundell in their respective teams' early-season successes.
