Hockey Betting Lines

02/06/2010 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Niclas Bergfors scored the game-winner late in the third period, as the Atlanta Thrashers downed the Florida Panthers, 4-2, at Philips Arena.

Evander Kane, Bryan Little and Maxim Afinogenov each lit the lamp for the Thrashers, who snapped a three-game slide. Johan Hedberg stopped 26 shots in the win.

Radek Dvorak scored both goals while Tomas Vokoun made 31 saves for the Panthers, who have dropped four of their last five.

This game was delayed for almost an hour due to the heavy snowfall that hit the mid-Atlantic region.

Atlanta played in Washington on Friday and then took a four-hour bus ride to Richmond, Virginia, where the team hopped on a charter flight to Atlanta. The plane landed in Atlanta around 6:00 p.m.

With the score tied in the third period, Bergfors cranked a slap shot that got past Vokoun with 4:26 to play.

With Vokoun pulled for an extra attacker, Kane put the puck into the empty net with 1:14 left to seal the win.

Florida took a 1-0 lead 6:18 into the game, as Jordan Leopold blasted a shot from the right point that Dvorak tipped into the net.

Dvorak scored on a backhander with 3:15 left in the first period to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead.

The Thrashers got a power-play goal from Afinogenov at the 3:49 mark of the second, as his slap shot from the right point found its way into the net, and Little's marker a little less than five minutes later tied the game.

Game Notes

Florida plays in Carolina on Tuesday...Atlanta plays in Colorado on Wednesday...Atlanta has taken three of five games against Florida this season...Nik Antropov had three assists for the Thrashers.
