Despite doing everything in his power, Jonathan Huberdeau was denied his first career playoff goal Wednesday.
The Florida Panthers forward had a breakaway late in the second period, but after sliding into the net - and New York Islanders goaltender Thomas Greiss - he skated away empty handed.
On the bright side, after heading to the dressing room in apparent agony, Huberdeau returned shortly thereafter, but remained less than enthused about the refs' decision on a video review.
