TORONTO -- The Toronto Maple Leafs and the Philadelphia Flyers will try to get back on the winning track Friday when they meet at the Air Canada Centre.The Flyers (6-6-2) lost two in a row while the Maple Leafs (5-5-3) had a three-game winning streak interrupted Tuesday by a 7-0 collapse against the Los Angeles Kings.After losing 3-2 to the Detroit Red Wings Tuesday in a shootout, Brayden Schenn will return to the top line as a left winger Friday after playing three games as third-line center.It doesnt change what I try to do on the ice, Schenn said Thursday after the teams practice. It is what it is. Theyre looking for balance, looking for chemistry. Im the guy thats kind of been tossed around a little bit all over the place so far, but it doesnt bother me.By returning to the first line, he will be reunited with Claude Giroux and Wayne Simmonds. Hopefully we get er going early on and stay together for a period of time, Schenn said.The 25-year-old has nine points (including seven assists) in 11 games after being suspended for the first three games of the season.Ideally, Schenn would be stay on one line for an extended period.I really wanted to look at him up the middle, Flyers coach Dave Hakstol said of Schenns third-line stint. He was there for three games, and the first two games I thought he did a good job and our team played well. It wasnt a great performance (Tuesday) for (Schenn), but certainly it wasnt a great performance by our team in terms of our overall play and energy.Schenn, Giroux and Simmonds were a good line late last season.They have some pretty good chemistry, and, yeah, in a perfect world, Id like to see that group stay together and rebuild the chemistry, Hakstol said.The coach said that goaltender Steve Mason will make his second consecutive start Friday.And Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock said on Thursday after his teams practice that Frederik Andersen would be back in goal Friday despite being removed from the game Tuesday in the second period after allowing four goals on 26 shots.Babcock said his team is allowing too many shots on goal -- more than 40 against in three of the past four games.Weve got to play better without the puck, Babcock said. Weve got to be better in the faceoff circle. I really thought last game in particular there was no reason for us to give up what we did. It wasnt that type of game, we didnt have to do that. We got away from what were doing.Sometimes its nice when your goalie is able to steal you a game and we appreciate the fact but we dont want to play like that. As much as weve generated lots of O-zone opportunities and time and shots ourselves, the numbers verify that, weve given up too much. All you have to do is look at goals against (48). Thats why we work on it every day and will continue to work on it. Joe Mullen Jersey .

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

PHILADELPHIA -- The Tampa Bay Lightning learned how to win without star forward Steven Stamkos in the past and theyll need to do it again after learning the 26-year-old sniper will be out at least four months with a torn meniscus.When they visit the Flyers (8-7-3) on Saturday afternoon, the Lightning (11-6-1) will try to continue what has been a perfect start to a five-game road trip (3-0-0).Tampa Bay did just fine in its first game without Stamkos, throttling the struggling Buffalo Sabres 4-1 on Thursday night on the strength of balanced scoring and 32 saves from Ben Bishop.Obviously, its a huge blow to our team, Bishop said of losing Stamkos, who three years ago missed 45 games with a broken leg and last season missed all but one playoff game with a blood clot in his collar bone. You lose your captain and arguably one of the best players in the league. Its a tough pill to swallow. Its just one of those things where youve got to step up. Everyone has to pick up the slack a little bit. ... Youve got to go more as a team effort because you cant rely on your big dog to come through.Alex Killorn recorded a goal and an assist for the Lightning and Nikita Nesterov, Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point also scored for Tampa. Kucherov has four goals and two assists in his last three games and is now tied for the NHL lead with 22 points in 17 games.Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said it wont be easy replacing Stamkos, whose 20 points in 16 games ranked third in the league before his injury.Theres always that emotional first game when youre without your guy, Cooper said. So the problem iis that its not just one game, its months, and we just have to stay consistent.ddddddddddddhe Flyers, who have been seeking consistency all season, are expected to welcome back rookie defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere, who was a healthy scratch for the first time in his NHL career Thursday night.Philadelphia won two of its last three games and received a strong 30-save effort from Steve Mason in Thursday nights 5-2 win over the Winnipeg Jets. Four different Flyers scored in that win and 12 different players recorded points.It was just the fourth time this season Philadelphia held an opponent under three goals and just the sixth time it did not allow a goal in the third period.I think definitely when youre going into the third with a lead you cant let up at all, said right wing Wayne Simmonds, who scored his team-leading ninth goal in the third period on Thursday night to give the Flyers a 4-2 lead. Weve got to pressure. Falling behind is kind of where weve laid back in the third period we kind of let teams give it to us and I think thats where we get in trouble, so weve got to keep following this groove.Mason is expected to return to the net, where hell be looking to win consecutive games for the first time this season.Mason made some huge saves for us and he cant do that every game, Philadelphia defenseman Mark Streit said. As a whole team we need to improve, especially on Saturday when we face another good offensive team. We need to be in sync. ' ' '
