SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) -- Brad Boyes scored the
tiebreaking goal early in the third period, Tim Thomas stopped 32 shots
and the Florida Panthers snapped a nine-game losing streak Tuesday night
with a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks.
Scottie Upshall and Shawn Matthias also
scored for the Panthers, who earned their first win under new coach
Peter Horachek and ended Anaheim's five-game winning streak. Upshall
also had an assist.
Florida won for the first time since
beating Minnesota 2-1 on Oct. 19. It was the Panthers' first victory in
three games under Horachek, who took over when Kevin Dineen was fired
last Friday.
Hampus Lindholm and Andrew Cogliano scored for the Ducks (15-4-1), who lead the NHL with 31 points.
