BOSTON -- Alex Auld made 29 saves, Martin Gelinas scored a power-play goal and Florida snapped Boston's season-high, four-game winning streak, with a 3-2 victory Monday night.
Joe Nieuwendyk netted a third-period, power-play goal and Nathan Horton scored in the second period for the Panthers. It was Florida's second road win of the season (2-6-3).
Glen Murray scored his team-leading 10th and 11th goals for Boston, which had its longest winning streak since March 2004 stopped.
Tim Thomas, making his fifth straight start for the Bruins, stopped 25 shots.
Maple Leafs 4, Islanders 2
TORONTO -- Darcy Tucker scored his 13th goal and Toronto held on to beat New York.
John Pohl, Kyle Wellwood and Alexei Ponikarovsky also scored for the Maple Leafs, who ended a two-game losing skid.
Toronto outshot New York 33-21, including 13-5 in the first.
The Maple Leafs have had offensive trouble lately without captain Mats Sundin (torn elbow ligament), but Tucker continued to impress on the power play, scoring his NHL-leading 10th goal with the man advantage. He is on pace to surpass the career-high 28 goals he scored last season.
Toronto's Andrew Raycroft made 19 saves after missing three games with a strained groin.
Chris Simon and Jason Blake scored for the Islanders, who finished 3-1-1 on their road trip. New York played its fourth game in six days.

Jiri Novotny, Jaroslav Spacek and Chris Drury also scored for the Sabres, who won for the sixth time in eight games.
Martin St. Louis had two goals for Tampa Bay, which lost its second straight.
It was the fifth time the Sabres scored at least six goals this season, and the second time in five games they posted seven.
Senators 5, Wild 3
OTTAWA -- Andrej Meszaros, Chris Kelly and Chris Neil scored first-period goals and Ray Emery made 42 saves, leading Ottawa over Minnesota.
Meszaros and Kelly scored 1:08 apart before seven minutes elapsed. Neil made it 3-0 with his sixth goal on a power play at 14:06.

DALLAS -- Antti Miettinen punched a loose puck through Peter Budaj's pads with 6:02 left to give Dallas over Colorado.
Miettinen's fifth goal of the season came only two minutes after Eric Lindros stormed through the slot and took a cross-ice pass from Mike Modano to score the tying goal.
