Two goals from Matthew Myers put Panthers in control before Joey Martin replied.

The claim: England and Wales have the highest incarceration rate per head of the population in Western Europe.
Reality Check verdict: In 2014 England and Wales did indeed have the highest incarceration rate in Western Europe, marginally ahead of Scotland.
Together with former home secretaries Jacqui Smith and Ken Clarke, he had written a letter to the Times calling for the prison population in England and Wales to be cut from the current level of more than 85,000 to the level in 1993 of about 45,000.
They referred to 1993 as being the year in which Michael Howard said that "prison works".
The prison population grew rapidly after that point, especially in the following five years. In the last five years it has been pretty much static at about 85,000.
Since 1993 the prison population has almost doubled over a period when the overall population of England and Wales has grown by about 17%.
Mr Clegg was only talking about England and Wales because in the rest of the UK the justice system is a devolved power, controlled by the Scottish Parliament and the Northern Ireland Assembly.
He also said: "We already have higher rates of incarceration per head of the population than anywhere else in Western Europe."
This chart based on Eurostat figures for 2014 shows that England and Wales is indeed ahead of the rest of Western Europe with 146 prisoners per 100,000 population, narrowly ahead of Scotland's 145. Northern Ireland had 93 prisoners per 100,000 population.

More than 100 British Transport Police (BTP) officers will patrol the 144 Underground stations open all night to try to "set behavioural standards".
The Met says overall crime levels will be unaffected.
But fewer than half of Londoners say they will feel safe on the Night Tube.
A report by the London Assembly Police and Crime Committee reveals TfL believes anti-social behaviour will rise on the all-night service, causing "high crime levels" and a "rowdy environment".
The BTP has identified 12 "red" stations where a special policing plan will be put in place: Piccadilly Circus, Charing Cross, Leicester Square, Victoria, Oxford Circus, Waterloo, Vauxhall, London Bridge, Camden Town, North Greenwich, Brixton and Hammersmith.
Illegal taxi touting is expected to increase at the end of Tube lines.
However, police believe some crime will effectively be displaced from night buses to the Tube.
"Despite these concerns, BTP is confident that robust analysis has been carried out to ensure the Tube remains safe for passengers and staff, but it will be difficult to be sure until it is up and running," says the report.
Forty-six percent of Londoners told a recent YouGov poll that they would feel safe taking the Night Tube, with 38% feeling unsafe and 16% unsure.
According to TfL's quarterly safety survey, Londoners are less likely to avoid using public transport because of a fear of crime than they were seven years ago.
Overall crime on the network has fallen, although reported sexual offences and violence against the person are up.
But although 15% had experienced unwanted sexual behaviour on the network, 90% of those did not report it.
The BTP told the committee that most of these were "stealth offences committed in crowds, in crowded tube carriages, frankly, which is sexual touching and horrible behaviour like that".
A text messaging reporting service, 61016, was launched last year to encourage people to report unwanted sexual behaviour.
On the New York subway, poster messages try to deter offences, but TfL research found that women who had experienced unwanted sexual behaviour did not want to be reminded of it by posters.
