Hockey Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - Sunrise, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tomas Vokoun's 31 saves set the tone for Florida's 4-1 victory to snap the Carolina Hurricanes' seven-game win streak at Bank Atlantic Center.

Kamil Kreps scored twice, including an empty-net goal, while Michael Frolik and Cory Stillman picked up the scoring slack in the Panthers' second straight win following a season-long seven-game losing skid.

"We scored seven goals in the game before and were able to get two quick goals in this game," said Frolik. "It's good cause it helps us grab the momentum in the game and carry it through. It was a big win for us."

Jussi Jokinen scored for the Hurricanes, who remain 11-3-0 over their last 14 games. Justin Peters had 26 saves in his fourth start of the season.

"It was a matter of breaks and bounces tonight," said Carolina head coach Paul Maurice. "But I'll tell you what, they (Florida) did as good a job tonight as we've seen in a long time."

Frolik was able to bat in a loose puck at the right side of the net to open the scoring at 13:58 of the first at the conclusion of a Panther power play.

Just 1:11 later Nick Tarnasky set up Kreps for a one-timer in the slot to make it 2-0.

Vokoun's sturdy play between the pipes kept it that way through the first two periods with 16 saves.

Jokinen knocked in a fluttering puck off the rebound of a Brandon Sutter offering to finally break through for Carolina at 7:58 of the third.

Steven Reinprecht snuck out from behind the net a short time later to set up Stillman's one-timer from in close for some breathing room at 3-1 with 3:30 left to play.

Kreps empty-netter sealed it just outside the final minute.
