MONTREAL -- The Florida Panthers rallied for a crucial win in their most recent outing. Now theyre hoping it gives them some momentum as they embark on a four-game road trip.Trailing 2-0 in the third period against the Islanders on Saturday, the Panthers tied it late in regulation and emerged victorious when rookie Denis Malgin scored late in overtime. With the win, Florida continued its pattern of alternating wins and losses in its past seven games.That was a big win for us, goaltender Roberto Luongo told reporters after the game. Not just the matter of getting a win, but something of a rallying point for guys. Hopefully, we can build around, take the momentum, the emotions of the win and carry it through the next little while here.Last seasons Atlantic Division champions, the Panthers (7-7-1) entered the 2016-17 campaign expected to once again challenge for the title. But early-season injuries to key players have plagued the club, which finds itself sixth in the division, albeit only five points out of second place. The team infirmary is starting to clear out, however. Veteran Jussi Jokinen recently returned and center Nick Bjugstad could make his season debut later in the week.Jonathan Marchessault has been a pleasant surprise for Florida and leads the team with eight goals and 14 points. The early season hasnt been as kind to star defenseman Aaron Ekblad, who finds himself with two points on the year thus far, both goals.I got to get into the offensive zone, I got to get pucks to the net, he told the Sun-Sentinel. I cant be looking to pass or make plays. My job is getting pucks to the net, not be the rush, but be supportive in it.In his third NHL season, Ekblad started the year as now the mentor after being the protege to former Panthers Brian Campbell and Willie Mitchell. Head coach Gerard Gallant paired him with rookie Mike Matheson, a Montreal native, but the duo struggled and was split up before Saturdays game, putting Ekblad with Mark Pysyk.It takes time to gel, time to get used to each other, time to build that kind of chemistry, Ekblad said to the Sun-Sentinel. I always had an older guy to lean on. Now, after three years, its my job to instill that knowledge that I learned from them on him and support him and work off each other.Its the first of four meetings between the two clubs. Last year, Florida swept the season series.The Canadiens (13-2-1) are coming off just their second regulation loss of the season after falling to the Blackhawks on Sunday night in Chicago. After a one-and-done road trip, the Habs return to the cozy confines of the Bell Centre, which hasnt been welcoming to visitors this season.Montreal is a perfect 10-0-0 at home, outscoring its opponents 37-12 in those games. Only one team has managed to get more than two goals into the Canadiens net at the Bell Centre. It broke a franchise record and is the second-longest home winning streak to start an NHL season, tying the 1924-25 Ottawa Senators.The 1963-64 Chicago Blackhawks hold the record, which stands at 11. The Canadiens can match that with a win against the Panthers.A large part of Montreals success -- at home and overall -- has been the remarkable play by Carey Price between the pipes.The way Carey is playing, he gives us a lot of confidence as a team, coach Michel Therrien said following Saturdays home win over Detroit. Hes a true leader.Center David Desharnais was slated to sit out a second straight game on Saturday but drew back in after Brian Flynn was a late scratch due to an upper-body injury. The Canadiens had the day off on Monday but they did call up forward Chris Terry from the AHLs St. Johns IceCaps. Terry leads the AHL club with 15 points in 10 games. Ron Hextall Flyers Jersey . Despite dominating possession, Schalke needed an own goal from Nicolas Hoefler for the breakthrough a minute before the interval. The Freiburg midfielder misjudged Jefferson Farfans corner and bundled the ball into his own net. Claude Giroux Flyers Jersey .J.

Lou Williams scored 25 points and the Hawks continued their offensive upswing as they rolled to an easy 118-85 victory over the Jazz on Friday night, winning their third straight and for the fourth time in five games.

Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. Charlie Adam scored both of Stokes goals at Britannia Stadium either side of Robin van Persies equalizer, with a miserable day for seventh-place United capped by first-half injuries to centre halves Jonny Evans and Phil Jones that forced them off. Jakub Voracek Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The New England Patriots came to Arizona without Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Rob Ninkovich and two starters on the defensive line.And came away 23-21 winners.This is awesome, Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan said after Sunday nights win. I dont even have words to express what this probably means to the whole team. Coming out here, playing on the road in a tough environment against a really good team.Jimmy Garoppolo , a third-year pro in his first start, completed 24 of 33 passes for 264 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions. After Arizona had taken a 21-20 lead, he directed a 13-play, 61-yard drive that ended with Stephen Gostkowsks 32-yard field goal, what proved to be the game winner with 3:44 to play.Jimmy Garoppolo played very, very well, Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said, knew he would.The Cardinals had a chance to win it but Chandler Catanzaro missed a 47-yard field goal with 41 seconds remaining.It was a tough start to the season for an Arizona team that has made it clear anything short of a Super Bowl would be a disappointment. Quarterback Carson Palmer said his team would bounce back.Any time you lose the opener at home, it hurts, he said. There is too much football ahead of us. There are too many guys that love the game, have the passion for the game and want to win, want to get it right.Here are some things to consider about the Patriots Sunday night victory.LOW SNAP, BIG MISS: The snap on what would have been the game-winning field goal for Arizona was low, the first big moment for the Cardinals rookie long snapper.Kameron Canaday won the job late in the preseason to replace longtime snapper Mike Leach, who retired.It was a little low, he said. I wish I could take it back but I cant.Catanzaro made no excuses.I know in my heart I should have made that kick, he said. So this game falls on me, and I hate it. But I know Im going to step up when the team needs me next.RECEIVING DEPTH: Much is made of the Cardinals depth and talent at receiver, but the Patriots group isnt bad, either.And in Gronkowskis absence, several were on hand to help their young quarterback. None was more important than Julian Edelman. Seven times he was Garoppoloss target and he caught all seven.dddddddddddd.Hogan had three catches, including a 37-yard touchdown reception. Danny Amendola had three catches, including a 32-yarder.Guys stepped up and that is what you have to do in this league, Hogan said. Injuries are part of the game and people have to step up and I think a lot of guys did that.AGELESS FITZGERALD: Larry Fitzgerald caught both of Arizonas touchdown passes, the second a marvelous, over-the-shoulder, sliding grab to put the Cardinals up in the fourth quarter.Entering his 13th NFL season, he finished with eight catches for 81 yards. The last touchdown catch was the 100th of his career, tying him with Hall of Famers Tim Brown and Steve Largent for eighth on the NFLs all-time list.Fitzgerald also moved past Torry Holt into 14th on the NFL career yards receiving list.There was a report that Fitzgerald has told people close to him that this would be his last year as a player.I dont talk about the future, he said. What Im doing next year is of no importance. This is the year and I want to make sure its a great one.ON THE RUN: The Patriots kept Arizona running back David Johnson in check most of the night, except for one big play.On that 45-yard run, Johnson spun away from tacklers at the line of scrimmage, put his hand on the ground to steady himself, then stiff-armed a defender before racing down the field.The guy is unbelievable, Fitzgerald said. He is a guy that can change the complexion of the game in one touch.The run set up the TD that put Arizona ahead in the fourth quarter.BELICHICKS STORY LINE: New England coach Bill Belichick was of no help to the throng of reporters who were looking to build their game stories around Garoppolo.He was asked his thoughts on Garoppolo being the story line for Monday and whether he was minimizing the young quarterbacks play.I mean, Im really, really concerned about the story line, Belichick said with obvious sarcasm. Like, theres really nothing higher on my list than the story line tomorrow.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
