SUNRISE, Fla. -- Claude Giroux's minor adjustment gave the Philadelphia Flyers their first shootout victory of the season.
Giroux scored the only goal in the shootout and the Flyers beat the Florida Panthers 3-2 on Tuesday night.
The All-Star forward beat Scott Clemmensen on the stick side to give the Flyers their first shootout victory in four tries this season. He paused before he got to the crease and found an opening.
"I just wanted to switch up a little bit, go fast and slow down and try different things," Giroux said. "It was good to help the team."
Brayden Schenn and Jakub Voracek scored in regulation for the Flyers, and Sergei Bobrovsky made 23 saves. Bobrovsky also stopped three attempts in the shootout, after going 0 for 5 previously this season.
Mikael Samuelsson and Tomas Fleischmann had goals for Florida, and... [Read More] |

BRIERE INJURED
In the same game that Jaromir Jagr left due to a lower-body injury, Flyers general manager announced that forward Danny Briere will be out indefinitely due to a concussion.
It is not exactly known when Briere suffered the injury, but he now joins teammates James van Riemsdyk and Chris Pronger on the sideline due to concussions.
Briere has missed just three games this season, none of which related to a concussion. He has 13 goals and 17 assists for 30 points in 43 games.
Holmgren also announced that forward Zac Rinaldo is day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

NEWARK, N.J. -- Jaromir Jagr's injury forced the Philadelphia Flyers to adjust their power play.
It worked just fine without him.
Jagr left in the first period of the Flyers' 4-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday, and didn't return. Philadelphia coach Peter Laviolette made some changes to the power play, that was facing the NHL's best penalty-killers.
Scott Hartnell scored two power-play goals -- one in the second period and another in the third -- and carried the Flyers to the win.
"We ran (Hartnell) back out there, and the team responded," Laviolette said. "We needed to get goals there, and Scott was able to get through some traffic."
It was the first time this season the Devils allowed two power-play goals in a home game.
"They do a good job of killing penalties," said Hartnell, who has a team-leading 22 goals.... [Read More] | |

UNIONDALE, N.Y. -- The Philadelphia Flyers have been winning with regularity since their Winter Classic loss to the New York Rangers. Another chance to play New York's other team provided an even bigger lift.
Backup goalie Sergei Bobrovsky continued his superlative play against the Islanders, stopping 33 shots, and the Flyers won for the 26th time in 28 games against Long Island's team, 3-2 on Thursday night.
The Flyers' fourth win in five games since the outdoor game at Citizens Bank Park on Jan. 2 moved Philadelphia within two points of the Atlantic Division-leading Rangers, who lost 3-0 to the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night.
Scott Hartnell, Wayne Simmonds and Sean Couturier scored for the Flyers. Kyle Okposo and John Tavares had goals for the Islanders.
"I don't know what it is, we just have their number," Hartnell said. "It's hard to explain that kind of... [Read More] | |
