  "account": "Anton Lundell scored a hat trick, while Seth Jones contributed with a goal and two assists, leading the Florida Panthers to a 5-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets. This win marked the Panthers' sixth triumph in their last eight games and gave them a commanding lead in the series. The Jets, meanwhile, dropped both games in their home-and-home series with Florida this week, falling to 0-6-2 in that span. Kyle Connor scored the lone goal for Winnipeg, but Morgan Barron's first of the season and Lundell's second restored Florida's two-goal lead. Akira Schmid made 22 saves for Florida, who are currently without star forwards Aleksander Barkov and Brad Marchand due to injury. Both are expected to return soon, with Marchand potentially available in about three weeks and Barkov in about four.",
