RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Aaron Ekblad shrugged it off. Paul Maurice called it “somebody else’s problem,” while casually taking a drink from a cup.Roughly 12 hours had passed since Florida’s Brad Marchand and Carolina’s Shayne Gostisbehereduring the Panthers’ Game 1 win in the Eastern Conference final, ending with Marchand being escorted to the locker room tunnel while barking back toward center ice.

It was part of a testy third-period sequence in which Marchand made a run at Gostisbehere along the boards and Gostisbehere retaliated by firing a puck directly into Marchand from his own blue line.The reigning Stanley Cup champion Panthers said all the right things Wednesday in turning down the temperature from that scrap.

“I mean, it happens, it is what it is,” said Ekblad, the defenseman who scored the second of Florida’s two tone-setting first-period goals.

It’s unclear if that mood will last through the puck drop for Thursday’s Game 2 of the best-of-seven series, though.Getting an organ transplant today is a long shot. More than 100,000 people are on the national waiting list, most who need a kidney. Thousands die waiting. Thousands more who could benefit aren’t even added to the list.

“I had seven cardiac arrests before I even was sick enough” to qualify for a new heart, said Dr. Robert Montgomery, chief of NYU Langone’s transplant institute. He’s a kidney transplant surgeon — and was lucky enough to get his own heart transplant in 2018.Filling the gap, he’s convinced, will require using animal organs.
