The Florida Panthers allowed four unanswered goals in their 4-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks on Thursday.

The loss dropped Florida's record to 6-7-1 on the season and kept the team stuck on 13 points. The Panthers have had a lot of success at home this year thus far, but not in this one. Early in the game, it appeared Florida would come away victorious before an onslaught of goals from San Jose.

Jason Demers was the reason for the the early lead with two fast goals in the first period. Demers entered the game with no goals on the season and changed that in a hurry.

The first goal for Demers came at the 5:09 mark of the first period. Assisting on the goal was Jared McCann. Roughly two minutes later, Demers made it a 2-0 game with assists from Jaromir Jagr and Aleksander Barkov.

It was from there that the Sharks put up their four goals. James Reimer was in the net for the Panthers and ended up with 25 saves in 28 chances.

Reimer has had multiple games this year where the opposition has scored in bunches during games Florida could have possibly won. Overall, Florida's backup goalie is now 2-2-1 this season.

The homestand for Florida will continue on Saturday when it hosts the New York Islanders at 7:00 p.m.
