TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 28 (UPI) -- Stephen Weiss found the net in the fourth round of a shootout Saturday, completing the Florida Panthers' 4-3 comeback win over Tampa Bay.

Teddy Purcell and Dana Tyrell gave Tampa Bay an early lead but it wasn't enough for the win.
Dan Ellis allowed three goals on 27 shots for the Bolts.
