Panthers Down Visiting Bruins 2-1




The Florida Panthers home winning streak continued as they defeated the visiting Boston Bruins by a score of 2 to 1. Roberto Luongo had a shutout going until there were 45 seconds left in the game when Mike Knuble drove the puck past the Panther's netminder, but it was too little too late for the Bostoner's.

There was no scoring in a first period that saw three penalties, two by the Panthers and one by the Bruins. Boston outshot Florida 12-8 in the first period.

Late in the second period Rostislav Olesz gave the Panthers a 1-0 lead when he scored on a long pass by Niklas Hagman. Roberto Luongo also was given an assist on that play, his second assist of the young season. Florida outshot Boston in the second period 10-8.

Late in the third period at the 18:14 mark, Nathan Horton scored his third goal of the season to add an insurance goal for the Panthers making it a 2-0 game. It was fortunate that Horton scored that goal because one minute later Luongo's shutout ended on the Knuble goal to make the final score 2-1.

Luongo stopped 31 of 32 shots for the Panthers and was a perfect 5-5 on GRs. Boston goalie Hannu Toivonen stopped 29 of 31 shots and was 4-5 on GRs in the loss. Luongo was named first star of the game, and teammates Niklas Hagman and Rostislav Olesz were named the second and third stars.
