Anton Lundell scored two goals to help lead the Florida Panthers to a 6-2 home win over the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday.

Florida carried the play throughout, outshooting Detroit 39-23 to win its second straight following a three-game losing streak.

Robby Fabbri and Tyler Bertuzzi scored for Detroit, which has lost four of its past five games.

Florida opened the scoring 4:10 into the game when Mason Marchment backhanded a rebound off a point shot by MacKenzie Weegar into an open goal to make it 1-0.

Detroit answered with 12:44 left in the first, tying the game 1-1 on a goal by Fabbri, who redirected a point shot by Danny DeKeyser into the net.

Florida regained the lead less than four minutes later on a power play, going ahead 2-1 when Anthony Duclair took a pass from Sam Reinhart and wired a shot from the right faceoff circle underneath the crossbar.

The Panthers struck again on the power play late in the first period, going up 3-1 with 1:58 remaining when Lundell's pass from the side of the Detroit goal hit the stick of Red Wings defenseman Gustav Lindstrom and went into the net.

Florida then took a 4-1 lead with 12:06 remaining in the second period on a goal by Sam Bennett, who took a pass from the boards by Carter Verhaeghe between the circles, deked Detroit goalie Thomas Greiss to the forehand and scored.

Florida then made it 5-1 with 8:59 left in the second when Lucas Carlsson fired a bad-angle shot from the left circle that eluded Greiss. Lundell scored his second of the game with 3:47 left in the second to make it 6-1.

Bertuzzi rounded out the scoring with 5:14 remaining.
