Square Garden Helps Win Into Meetings

Hockey Betting Lines

"I think we had a good start to the game," Wilson said. "When you get a three- goal lead, you try to make the next goal prettier, and we allowed them to get back into the game. It's nice to get a little bit of a cushion and let our team relax and get over some of the bumps and bruises."

 

Toronto has been paced all year by Phil Kessel, who is tied for second in the NHL with 20 goals and 41 points. However, one player Wilson and Burke may be missing is current Panther Kris Versteeg, who leads Florida with 16 goals and 37 points.

 

Versteeg and company came up empty in a big way on Friday, getting blasted by the Bruins 8-0. Jose Theodore gave up four goals on 14 shots before being lifted after one period. Scott Clemmensen made 17 saves in relief as the Panthers lost a season high-tying third straight game for the second time this month and third time this year.

 

Injuries may have played a factor as Florida was without second-leading point generator in Stephen Weiss. He became the seventh Panther forward to suffer an injury and four of those skaters, including Weiss, have all been hurt within the last four games.

 

Three of Florida's injured players -- Jack Skille, Marco Sturm and Sean Bergenheim -- scored when the Panthers dealt a hosting Toronto club a 5-1 defeat back on Nov. 8 in the first of four meetings between the teams this season.

 

Kessel had the lone goal for the Maple Leafs in the most recent loss.

 

Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist was sharp in the Winter Classic preview, turning aside 28 shots in the win for New York. Andrej Meszaros and James van Riemsdyk each had a goal for the Flyers, who have dropped their past three games in Madison Square Garden. Ilya Bryzgalov was tagged for all four goals on 24 shots.

 

"We played a pretty good first period, but they jumped on us in the second and they made it tough to mount a comeback," said Meszaros.
