Panthers aim for season-best fourth straight win

Jan 16, 2009 - 11:39 AM Philadelphia (23-12-9) at Florida (20-16-6), 7:30 pm EST

SUNRISE, Florida (Ticker) -- The Florida Panthers hope a five-day break doesn't ruin their momentum.

The Panthers will seek their season-high fourth consecutive victory Friday, when they host the Philadelphia Flyers.

Ville Peltonen scored two of Florida's five third-period goals during Saturday's 8-4 rout of the Atlanta Thrashers. The Panthers have outscored their opponents by a 16-8 margin over their current winning streak.

Goaltender Tomas Vokoun has not received a loss at BankAtlantic Center since November 14, collecting five home wins over that span.

The Flyers have lost seven of their last nine contests on the road. Philadelphia has posted a 9-7-6 road record this season.

Joffrey Lupul netted a power-play goal, but the Flyers did not enjoy their first stop in the "Sunshine State" as they suffered a 4-1 setback to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday.
