Jesper Boqvist gave Florida the lead at the end of the first period when he shot 3–2.

A little over five minutes into period three, Rangers equalized again, only to see Jesper Boqvist score his second goal a moment later, this time with an assist from his brother.

We're both living our dream here and we're having a lot of fun. We're very grateful to be here, says Jesper Boqvist to reporters after the match.

The night's harvest means that Jesper Boqvist has made 13 points this season, while his brother Adam has been credited with five points.

Florida started scoring just three minutes in when Gustav Forsling played forward to Eetu Luostarinen, who scored the match's first goal.
