Soon after the Panthers proceeded on their third power play, Reinhart turned the puck over and Atkinson skated in all alone and scored short-handed at 10:53 for a 2-1 Flyers lead.
The Panthers equalized at 2 with only 26.6 seconds remaining in the second when the puck ricocheted off Tippett's skate and into the net.
The pace was frenetic through the first five minutes of the third, with numerous scoring opportunities on both sides.
Florida took a 3-2 lead at 7:53 of the period when Huberdeau scored a short-handed goal. The shot from behind clanged off the back of Hart's pad.
